Kapitel 272: Activities at night

As the hours in the night continued to pass, the candles melted until they couldn't burn any more than they already did, while the only light came from the fireplace, where the burning flames of the wooden logs had started to dim.

While Eve continued to sleep in the bed, Vincent sat on the edge of the window. One of his legs folded and rested next to the windowpane, and the other was placed on the ground. He took a drag from the cigarette, where its end burned brightly before ash started to cover it when he blew the smoke. Against the sound of the snow and the wind whistling outside, he noticed a carriage leaving the inn, and after a few seconds, someone screamed in the inn. 

The scream woke Eve from her sleep and she sat up in the bed, anxiously looking for Vincent. She saw him wearing his shirt and buttoning it before he walked towards the door. She asked him, 

"Did you hear someone scream?"
