Put the shoes on

You grit your teeth and groan in humiliation as you slip your feet into the platform heels. Your long nails make it difficult to do the slender strap around your ankles but you eventually manage.

Bracing yourself on the chair, you rise unsteadily to your feet. The six inch heels are an altogether new sensation as you take a few wobbly steps, trying to maintain your balance in the unfamiliar footwear. After a few laps around the inside of the pavilion you feel confident enough that you won't be falling over with every step and you decide its time to get back to finding the exit.

Your hips sway embarrassingly as you walk back out onto the walkways of Bimbo Boulevard, your new shoes and gait making you move much slower than you would like.
