Haru softly pushed him back to stop him from standing up right away. It wasn't yet the time for him to get up - not alone. "No, don't try to stand up yet." she warned him. "Someone will bring you food. Wait at least till then, if you're so impatient." The last word was said with a slightly joking tone, but she was completely serious.
It was bright in the room where Seiki awoke. It was a room he knew well... It was disturbingly familiar to him. And still somehow... Calming. The fact that he was here meant that he was alive. Most definitely, alive and awake. No dream would feel like that.
He turned his head to the side, looking over his surroundings. Which were almost nonexistent, if not counting the walls and hard floor. He himself was just a little higher above it, set on a somewhat thicker mat than that on which he slept. Even through that he could feel the floor. Fortunately enough, the layers of bandages over his hand, shoulder and chest were thick enough to make the greatest discomfort disappear. That was, as long as he didn't move.
He wasn't going to move even if he wanted. Even then, he was too exhausted to do so.
