Marlon threw Aryana a glance.

Aryana understood that he wanted to talk to Erik privately.  She left them without saying a word and went to the gym.  She closed the door, then put on her stilettos and started practicing her walk.  She swayed her hips in an exaggerated way and imitated ramp models when they walked on the catwalk.  She placed her foot in front of the other as she made her steps and swung her arms.

She practiced for a long time observing herself on the wall mirror in the gym.  At first, she looked very awkward but her persistence in practicing paid off.  After several repetitions, she finally sighed.  She was contented with the way she walked.  The saying "Practice makes perfect"  was really true.

She took off her heels and started massaging her calf.  Her legs were too stiff from prolonged walking.

The door opened and Erik frowned when he saw Aryana sitting on the floor, her knees under her chin and she was massaging her legs.
