[Grey visibly relaxes at that. Maybe he's wrong to, but he thinks he can trust Manabu to keep a promise.]

Alright, good.

[That mostly covers the safety issue... The rest of the morning passes by peaceably enough. After they've both eaten and gotten dressed and cleaned up, Grey has Manabu doing more physio (in a switch-up from yesterday, they focus on Manabu's right side instead of his left) and then there isn't really any reason to delay any further.

Though Grey does do the nagging mother thing as he's on his way out the door, still adjusting the ball cap and sunglasses he's opted to wear to try and disguise his distinctive hair and eye colors.]

Remember, don't let anyone except me in. If the landlord shows up, pretend that nobody's home. Make sure the blinds are drawn.

[That last one feels a little cruel considering Manabu's been trapped in a basement for months, but what if someone looks in and sees him?]
