Maybe by noon.

He was still glancing at them when his lips curved in a smile. But then, he thought of the reason why he woke up this early, he knew the reason why he woke this early. As known, due to his already healing injuries.

It wasn't like he was feeling pain from the injuries or something, that's why he woke early...no. Instead, they do itch him sometimes, it's part of the healing process, and due to the medications Vera applied to it yesterday. This was the reason why he even woke in the middle of the night and fell back to sleep right away...the injuries were itching him.

He thought of today's journey, would he be able to embark on it or not? Was he strong enough? These were questions he couldn't find answers to right away. The only way he'll be able to find answers to them was to try walking and see how strong and capable his body was.
