Sanju pushed open the heavy door to the penthouse, feeling the familiar stiffness in her body from a long day painting. She took a deep breath, savoring the faint scent of lavender that lingered in the air, and made her way to the training area. She changed to her training clothes. Vasu arrived and guided her through a series of warm-up exercises. The next hour passed in a blur of intense activity. Vasu pushed her hard, correcting her stances and guiding her through various defensive maneuvers. By the end, Sanju was drenched in sweat, her body buzzing with a mix of exhaustion and adrenaline. “You’re improving,” Vasu said as they finished up. “Lets keep practicing regularly.” “Thanks, Vasu,” Sanju replied, managing a tired smile.
