"You really want to try it?" Chao asked, unsure and pretty much worried that everything could go wrong.
"Of course, doctor Bai said I should try to get up. Slowly. But I should start walking…" Yitian said and sat up with Chao's help. He was still weak, but the more he stayed in the bed, the more useless he felt.
"But still, you are still weak." Chao looked even more worried than before. But Yitian didn't care. The only thing he wanted was to stretch his legs and try to stand up.
He stood up with the hospital staff once before, so this wasn't for the first time. But he was still weak and needed help.
Yitian started just as the staff told him. He slowly let his legs down from the bed and sat there for a while. Chao was hovering above him, ready to catch him at any time.
