1
I was about to shoot my target, when suddenly, someone appeared from the shadows and snatched the apple away.
2
It was the most popular guy in school, Travis, and lately, he'd been flirting with me every chance he got.
3
Let's play a game.
4
If you miss the target, I'll have to kiss you.
5
But if you hit it, then you'll have to kiss me.
6
What do you say?
7
Sure, why not?
8
Everyone knew how good I was in archery, and as expected, it was a bullseye.
9
Deal's a deal, cream puff.
10
As he closed his eyes for the kiss, I called for the school cat Loki and whispered something to it.
11
You can open your eyes now.
12
Loki scratched his face like a wild animal as I walked away.
13
In total satisfaction.
14
Hi, my name is Bianca, and I'm incapable of falling in love.
15
Well, that's what I thought.
16
But before I continue, please like and subscribe.
17
My mom owned a huge chain of hotels, and I was the sole heiress to the business empire.
18
Our family name was well known already, but I'd really made us famous.
19
Teen heiress seen kissing alleged gangster?
20
Spoiled princess seen at archaeological site closed off for public?

Princess Bianca announces to pay any amount to straighten the leaning tower of Pisa.
22
Each headline is worse than the one before.
23
Alleged gangster, Mom.
24
We broke up.
25
And you know my keen interest in history.
26
I had to see that sight.
27
And come on, am I the only one annoyed by that leaning tower?
28
When will you ever get serious, Bianca?
29
I have a private jet to catch, but we're not done with this conversation.
30
Yes, go to your meeting, Mom.
31
You didn't even remember to wish me a happy birthday but I was still celebrating in style.
32
I was having a huge birthday party at the newest club in town.
33
But my night was ruined when I saw an uninvited guest, Travis.
34
And he was approaching me and my BFF Carmen, as if he was God's gift to women to spite that scary face.
35
Hey, sugar lips, wanna dance?
36
Aren't you supposed to hate me for making you look like Frankenstein?
37
What's love without a little pain?
38
And I adore your feistiness.
39
He was all over me the whole night.
40
Eventually, I had to make Carmen distract him and try to escape, but he noticed and followed me like a madman.
41
I'm not done with you, my love.
42
I turned around a corner and opened a VIP door at the end of the hallway.
43
There were some men in suits playing poker, and they all turned to me like I was an alien.
44
Whoopsie, wrong room.
45
Thought it was the toilet.
46
But may I say, sir, your jacket is really cool.
47
Very vintage 90s.
48
Michael Jackson kind of vibe.
49
Okay, okay, I won't bother you guys.
50
May the best man win.
51
Bye!
52
Travis was nowhere to be seen, so I took the chance to finally leave the club.
53
But of course, I couldn't avoid him at school, and he was being such a nuisance that eventually, I got a restraining order against him.
54
My life was finally peaceful, till a few days later when Carmen told me that her cousin from the village would be joining our school.
55
Since when do you have a cousin?
56
Ever since he was born?
57
You never told me about him.
58
I love to collect snake skins and samurai swords in my basement.
59
I didn't tell you about those either.
60
What?
61
Friends should share everything.
62
I think some secrets are good.
63
Oh my god, my cousin's here.
64
I turned to this guy who was walking towards us like he was the king of the underworld.
65
Judging by his walk, he knew he was a fine specimen of the male species.
66
But suddenly, he tripped over nothing and fell into the fountain nearby.
67
And then he immediately got up like nothing happened.
68
I felt like I was watching a comic cartoon strip.
69
Are you sure he's not some hot model you paid to act as your clumsy cousin?
70
Nice way to say that he's hot and adorable.
71
He then spun her around like she was the cotton ball.
72
Carmen, my favorite girl.
73
I missed you so much.
74
The guy turned to me and I was stunned.
75
He was even more handsome up close and also really familiar.
76
You must be Bianca, Carmen's best friend.
77
I'm Slater.
78
Nice to finally meet you.
79
Did you just curtsy?
80
And have we met before?
81
No. Is this how city people greet each other?
82
Excuse us a moment.
83
Carmen pulled me out of Slater's earshot.
84
What you doing?
85
Uh, talking to my best friend's cousin?
86
Why does that require you to bring your face so close to his?
87
I just thought he looked really familiar.
88
What's your problem?
89
I just think you're finding an excuse to flirt with him.
90
Now listen up, Bianca.
91
You're never serious about any boy, and you just play with their feelings and dump them.
92
And you're not allowed to do that to my cousin.
93
He's not even my type.
94
Relax.
95
Just don't get involved with him that way, or it's friendship over.
96
Understood?
97
Loud and clear, ma'am.
98
Since then, the three of us started hanging out together, and I was having a hard time believing someone like Slater existed.
99
Sheer perfection on the outside, but with the poorest balance a human could possibly have.
100
He tripped, slipped, and stumbled everywhere.
101
He even got a black eye while tying his shoelaces.
102
But one night, while I was admiring one of the paintings at home, it hit me like a bolt of lightning.
103
I remembered where I'd seen Slater before.
104
You gotta trust me, Carmen.
105
Your cousin's up to something shady.
106
Mom and I attended this art exhibition downtown last month, and Slater was there.
107
He was one of the artists.
108
We even bought a painting from him.
109
Only his hair and eye color was different, but it was him, and he wasn't clumsy.
110
He must have been a lookalike.
111
Slater has lived in the village his entire life and just got here last week, and he can't even draw a circle, trust me.
112
I even showed Slater's picture to Mom, and she said it's him too.
113
Now she's contacted the artist to buy more of his work, and he's coming soon, and I'll finally know the truth.
114
You just need to give yourself something to be excited about.
115
Do what you want, but you're wrong.
116
A couple of days later, the artist called Mom to say that he had to go out of town, and he'd come to meet her next month.
117
How convenient.
118
I decided not to say anything to Slater and try to get to the bottom of his secret identity.
119
He was always hovering around me and Carmen like an annoying fly.
120
He was sure to slip up at some point.
121
I'd be watching him.
122
But one day, I was spying on him at the gym, and after seeing him miss the 100th basket, I got really bored.
123
I decided to skip the rest of school that day to get a manicure.
124
As I was walking to my car, a van suddenly stopped next to me.
125
Good day, child.
126
Would you please buy some apples from me?
127
I run an orphanage and I'd like to get some toys for the children.
128
Sure thing.
129
Just give me a basket and I'll give you.. a hundred thousand bucks.
130
I was about to take the basket from her when Slater suddenly popped out of nowhere and crashed into me.
131
Hey, you.
132
Who do you work for?
133
Show me your ID.
134
The poor lady looked terrified and just drove away.
135
What the heck was that?
136
Didn't your parents ever tell you not to take candy from strangers?
137
What if she was trying to poison you?
138
Dude, those are apples, not candy.
139
And who am I?
140
Snow White?
141
And that cute granny is trying to poison me because I'm the fairest girl in all the land!
142
This isn't funny.
143
You don't know how dangerous some situations can be.
144
Oh, please.
145
I swam with sharks last year and jumped off a hot air balloon when it malfunctioned.
146
I laugh in the face of danger.
147
And that lady just wasn't dangerous.
148
I know you're from the village and probably think everyone in the city's evil, but please stop being a weirdo.
149
But Slater just got weirder.
150
Like another time, the three of us were at a restaurant, and as soon as the waiter served our order, he started sniffing mine.
151
If you wanted me to completely lose my appetite, you succeeded.
152
What's wrong with you?
153
He also started sniffing his food and Carmen's.
154
That's how we do it in the village.
155
The first whiff of food tells you everything you need to know.
156
About what exactly?
157
About how organically the food was grown, If the farmer sang to his crops and cows.
158
I ordered a giant brownie sundae with whipped cream and sprinkles.
159
Are you insane?
160
Just give me that.
161
Just then, there was a loud crashing sound next to us, and Slater jumped towards me and brought me down to the floor, covering me like a human shield.
162
He was looking down at me, and I was a little breathless.
163
And then, I saw everyone else staring at us like we were mental.
164
Apparently, a waiter had just dropped a tray full of glasses.
165
Oh, uh, my bad.
166
I thought it was a gunshot, and maybe some robbers had come in.
167
I just acted on instinct.
168
Uh, wait, let me get this straight.
169
So you thought it was a dangerous situation and your first instinct was to save Bianca?
170
Hello?
171
What about me?
172
Your own flesh and blood?
173
Slater muttered some apologies while Carmen kept scolding him, even if he was crazy.
174
It was really sweet how he tried to protect me.
175
One weekend, Carmen told me that the cheer captain was throwing a party, just for the cheerleaders and all the boys.
176
I felt curious to see how Slater would act at parties with other girls, so I dashed over to the venue and spied from the bushes.
177
But I couldn't spot him anywhere.
178
I knew how girls looked at him.
179
He was probably surrounded by the cheerleaders.
180
Well, what did I care?
181
I took this opportunity to practice my amazing singing.
182
I can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand,
183
to myself for hours, say things you don't understand.
184
Suddenly, I heard a sound right behind me.
185
Slater, what are you doing here?
186
Same question for you.
187
I came here to sing flowers.
188
Cause you know, there are flowers here.
189
Duh.
190
What about you?
191
It's too loud inside, and everyone was acting wild.
192
It was scaring me.
193
Just then, a huge bug came flying at our faces, and Slater tried to smack it away, but he ended up slapping me instead!
194
Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
195
My hand is so stupid.
196
Bad hand.
197
Gosh, Slater!
198
Why are you so freaking clumsy?
199
I don't know, just born that way.
200
But I get even clumsier around you, cause attractive girls make me nervous, and you're the most beautiful I've ever seen.
201
Wh-what do you mean?
202
You know what I mean, Bianca.
203
It suddenly hit me.
204
He was attracted to me, and that could make things complicated.
205
I had to avoid him from now on before Carmen could misinterpret things and unfriend me.
206
But the very next day, I caught him in the janitor's closet with his butt stuck in a mop bucket.
207
Jesus, what have you done this time?
208
Can you just help me, please?
209
I think I got a cramp.
210
As I pulled him up, her lips accidentally touched, and my tummy fluttered.
211
Just then, someone gasped from the door.
212
Carmen!
213
Girl, it's not what you think.
214
I followed her to an empty classroom and tried to explain.
215
I swear, there's nothing romantic going on between us.
216
He's too dumb and clumsy for me, and I'm certain he's a liar.
217
Excuse me?
218
That's my cousin you're insulting.
219
And you say these things, but I feel like you're attracted to him.
220
Just don't get attached to him, okay?
221
He's not right for you.
222
Of course, duh.
223
I already knew that.
224
But I was a bit bothered by what Carmen said.
225
Why did she think he wasn't right for me?
226
A few days later, I was practicing archery alone, when suddenly, an arrow came flying from somewhere and almost hit me.
227
I turned around and saw someone behind a tree.
228
I dashed over and found Slater.
229
What are you doing here?
230
Trying to kill me now?
231
No, what?
232
What just happened?
233
You happened, Slater.
234
You nearly sent an arrow straight into me.
235
You're a hazard to society.
236
Oh, oh God, I'm so sorry.
237
I didn't realize my arrow came your way.
238
I mean, I didn't even know anyone was here.
239
I would never hurt you, I swear.
240
But let me make it up to you with an ice cream shake.
241
Come on, let's go.
242
I wasn't finding his act convincing.
243
Why was he always around me?
244
He was beginning to seem as obsessed with me as Travis.
245
And what if he tried to hurt me on purpose with the arrow?
246
By the way, are you free tonight?
247
I want to talk to you about something.
248
Just you and me, alone.
249
Okay, sure.
250
But we're alone right now.
251
You can't tell me over ice cream shakes?
252
What ice cream shakes?
253
Oh, yeah, that.
254
No, tonight's better.
255
I'll send you the pin location.
256
Driver, I'll get off here.
257
Thanks.
258
See you later, Bianca.
259
And then he just jumped out of the car and walked away.
260
This dude was so weird, but I was really curious about what he had to say.
261
Later that night, I was surprised to learn where he was taking me.
262
The rooftop of an old building.
263
There was no elevator, so we had to climb eight flights of stairs.
264
And he was holding on to my shirt like a kid.
265
Wait, what if he tried to push me down?
266
Can you move away?
267
I need some personal space.
268
But what if I trip and fall down the stairs?
269
You know how clumsy I get.
270
Why would you invite me to a rooftop then, idiot?
271
You'll see.
272
When we finally reached the top, I was surprised to see a candlelit dinner.
273
What's all this?
274
Obviously a date.
275
Were you expecting a crime scene?
276
Didn't your cousin warn you about me?
277
She did, but I just don't see why she's so against the idea of you being my girlfriend.
278
You're beautiful and amazing.
279
She.. she was trying to protect you because I have a history of not being good with relationships.
280
May I know why?
281
And before I knew it, I just found myself opening up.
282
Growing up, I saw how my dad broke my mom's heart and left her for another woman.
283
Since then, mom's not even the same person.
284
She just buries herself in work.
285
And dad kind of broke my heart too.
286
Leaving like that?
287
I'm just afraid to let anyone come close.
288
I know that you don't trust me, but I hope that someday you will, and I'll get to know you better.
289
I feel like you're someone worth knowing.
290
He looked at me earnestly and then started leaning in.
291
I found myself closing my eyes, and when his lips touched mine, I felt something electric.
292
Wait, that was a mistake, Slater.
293
I care a lot about my friendship with Carmen.
294
I can't.
295
Okay, I understand.
296
But later that night, all I could think about was Slater and that kiss.
297
Maybe I could talk to Carmen and she'd come around, but I still couldn't shake off the idea that Slater was lying about himself.
298
As luck would have it, Mom told me the next day that the artist was back in town, and he was displaying his work at a gallery that night.
299
Well, Slater wasn't gonna be the only one in disguise.
300
I went dressed up as someone completely different, and I was thrilled to see him.
301
He might have a different style, but I was certain it was Slater.
302
And as I was walking past him, I accidentally tripped and fell forward, scraping his arm with my pen.
303
I'm so sorry.
304
I'm not very good with the walking.
305
Uh, clumsy, like you people say.
306
Oh, it bleeds.
307
It's fine, miss.
308
I'm okay.
309
Excuse me.
310
I need to use the bathroom.
311
And the next day at school, Slater was wearing a full-sleeved shirt just like I'd expected.
312
So I spilled my juice all over him.
313
Oh my god, you're wet.
314
You'll have to change your shirt.
315
It's fine, it'll dry up.
316
No, you'll get sick.
317
I won't.
318
I'm as strong as a cow.
319
I tried a few more tricks, but he was able to avoid all of them.
320
I guess I just had to do it by force.
321
After our classes, I followed him outside school.
322
And just as I was ready to jump on him from behind, he turned around and pinned me to the wall.
323
Bianca, why were you trying to attack me?
324
How did you know, Spider-Man?
325
And all I wanted to do was this.
326
I pulled up his sleeve, and sure enough, he had a long cut on his arm.
327
Ha!
328
So you're really that artist.
329
I've exposed you, you big fat.
330
Suddenly, there was a growl behind me.
331
I turned to see two guys holding two rabid dogs and pointing at us.
332
Bianca, just run.
333
Slater grabbed my hand, and we ran like crazy from the dogs.
334
After sprinting down several blocks, he pulled me into an old building, and we ran up the stairs.
335
We climbed all the way to the rooftop and we could hear those guys behind us.
336
Okay, there's no other choice.
337
We gotta jump.
338
Excuse me?
339
I must have heard you wrong.
340
And what is going on?
341
Questions later and what's the matter?
342
I thought you laughed in the face of danger.
343
Ha ha.
344
Now is not the time to be sarcastic.
345
Just hold on to me and you'll be fine.
346
Do you trust me?
347
Of course I don't trust you.
348
You're the clumsiest idiot I've ever met.
349
Listen, Bianca, I'm not who you really think I am.
350
I just need you to trust me right now, okay?
351
I won't let anything happen to you.
352
I promise.
353
My instincts told me to trust him, and I did.
354
And what happened next was the most thrilling thing ever.
355
We went flying through the air, then landed straight in a garbage dump.
356
Ew, fish heads.
357
Come on, this isn't over yet.
358
I needed answers about why I was currently running a marathon with my BFF's mystery cousin around the city.
359
Slater, why are these people after us?
360
Listen, something happened.
361
He didn't get to finish because the gangsters finally cornered us.
362
Slater pushed me inside one of the diners as he started fighting them, expertly.
363
What were these Kung Fu ninja moves?
364
He was so hot.
365
Just then, one of the guys came up behind him with a metal chair.
366
I looked around for anything I could throw at that scumbag before he could hurt Slater.
367
Bullseye.
368
That's my girl.
369
Just then, a bunch of policemen arrived and surrounded the men, and Slater pulled out a badge.
370
You're under arrest.
371
What?
372
He was a detective?
373
As those jerks were being taken away, Slater finally told me everything, starting with how I unknowingly got involved with an international mafia gang.
374
You walked in on them one night at the dance club and saw something you weren't supposed to see.
375
You've been in danger since then.
376
Oh, those guys!
377
But I swear I didn't even see anything!
378
They couldn't be sure of that, so you've been their target since.
379
I was already in town looking for this gang and posing as an undercover artist, but when we found out that they were looking for you, I joined your school to be closer.
380
We also thought we could catch them using you.
381
You mean, using me as bait?
382
I didn't mean use you like that.
383
We just knew they'd come after you.
384
So, that date on the rooftop?
385
Was that also a ploy to get the gang members there?
386
Um, well yeah.
387
We had police hidden all over that building.
388
But I think the gang realized it was a trap.
389
Everything made sense now.
390
He was just pretending to be interested all along
391
so he could be around me for my protection and to catch the bad guys.
392
I was just a mission for him.
393
You saved my life.
394
Thank you.
395
I just did my job.
396
I'm glad you're safe now.
397
I gotta report to headquarters soon, so...
398
Yeah, great job.
399
Goodbye then.
400
As I walked away, I suddenly felt sad and empty, and the next day at school, Slater was gone.
401
I demanded more answers from Carmen.
402
Slater really is my cousin.
403
He became a detective at a young age, and he doesn't tell us much about his job.
404
But after that restaurant incident where he was clearly protecting you, I asked him what was going on, and he said it was something related to you, but it was confidential.
405
So that's why you didn't want us to get closer.
406
Yes, because he was just here for his job and he doesn't form attachments.
407
I didn't want you to get hurt.
408
I'm sorry.
409
What for?
410
I can see it in your eyes, Bianca.
411
You're in love with him, but I don't think he can make you happy.
412
Oh, please.
413
I've told you, I'll never fall in love with anyone.
414
If you say so.
415
Over the next few days, I tried my best to get back to normal, but I couldn't get Slater out of my mind.
416
Even mom noticed something was up with me.
417
Haven't seen any crazy headlines lately.
418
No new adventures?
419
Yeah, it's been kinda quiet, but I did make one stupid mistake.
420
Falling in love.
421
Mom sat down beside me and then pulled me into an awkward hug.
422
Sweetie, I know you've been affected by what your dad did, but don't close your heart off.
423
Falling in love isn't stupid, and you'll find the right guy one day.
424
And it'll be amazing.
425

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
