It was night. Volodya's room was dark. He had gone to bed but he could not sleep. He was lying on his back and was looking at the ceiling.
Someone was walking in the street with a lantern. His shadow traversed the ceiling, among the red spots of light thrown by the lantern. It was evident that the lantern swung in the hands of the passerby -- the shadow wavered and seemed agitated.
