1
Hey friends, I'm Sia from Florida.
2
If you want to go on a safari with me, please like and subscribe.
3
I was born into a loving family that treated me like a princess.
4
Nah, just kidding.
5
Living with them was a nightmare because the apple of my parents' eye was my brother Danny.
6
Okay, it might seem like I'm complaining a lot, but hang on to know why.
7
Growing up, mom and dad were always busy with their jobs or would be fighting with each other.
8
While my parents did that, I pretty much had to fend for myself, and that's why I learned to cook early on.
9
But that made my brother demand me to fix him some snacks every time he was hungry.
10
And I wasn't gonna be bossed around.
11
Make yourself a sandwich, I'm not your nanny.
12
Oh, talking back to your brother?
13
Now face this!
14
Saying that, Danny picked his nose and chased after me.
15
Gross!
16
My brother loved to tease me all the time.
17
He would stick out his tongue at me, throw gum at me, and worse.
18
It was like his life's mission was to annoy me.
19
One time, I caught Danny stealing my trick -or -treat candies.
20
I knew mom would go crazy if she found out about him eating too many candies because of his braces.
21
So I did what every responsible sister does.
22
I blackmailed him.
23
I will keep my lips zipped if you let me have the PlayStation for the entire month.
24
Do we have a deal?
25
Deal?
26
In your dreams.
27
I'll just say you're lying.
28
Easy peasy.
29
Oh, that made me so mad.
30
Just then, I noticed his piggy bank on the desk and grabbed it.
31
But Danny tried to snatch it for me, and in doing so, it fell and broke.
32
Mom and Dad came running and were pretty pissed at what I'd done.
33
You are always bothering your brother.
34
But Mom, no buts.
35
Grandma gifted him this piggy bank on his test result day.
36
And look what you did.
37
I am so disappointed.
38
The school wasn't any different.
39
Although Danny was a year older than me, we went to the same class, and he was the star kid according to the teachers.
40
One time, we were having our fifth grade English exam, and I was so tense because I hadn't studied.
41
But when I saw Danny, the guy was writing like he was some scholar.
42
So, I focused on my question paper and answered it as best as I could.
43
But when the results came, I was called to the principal's office, and mom was also there.
44
Why, oh why?
45
Care to tell us what you were thinking when you wrote a song in an English exam?
46
Under my umbrella?
47
Really?
48
Um, because we had to write a poem about an umbrella.
49
Songs are also poems, aren't they?
50
That really got the teacher angry.
51
And the look mom gave me made me want to hide my head in a hole like an ostrich.
52
When I returned to the class, everyone was laughing at me and singing that song.
53
Dumbhead, I knew you would fail the subject, but failing so epically?
54
It's so hilarious.
55
I overheard the conversation, and I couldn't help but share it with everyone.
56
I so wanted to rip him to shreds, but instead, I just cried and promised myself to get even with him.
57
So the next day at home, I wore his favorite hoodie and paraded in front of him while he was busy playing on his PlayStation.
58
Ugh, this looks so nice on me.
59
What do you say?
60
The moment Danny saw me, he chased me, and I ran around the coffee table and took the PlayStation controller.
61
He came charging at me like a bull and pushed me onto the couch.
62
But I just kept screaming louder, even though I wasn't hurt.
63
Oh, God!
64
Mom!
65
Dad!
66
He smacked me!
67
Ah!
68
You liar!
69
Dad, she's totally lying!
70
I didn't touch her!
71
My parents believed me and grounded him for an entire weekend.
72
Finally, I felt happy.
73
As time passed, our bickering didn't seem to stop.
74
When we reached high school, I went on a date with the coolest guy in my class.
75
And Danny showed up!
76
I was furious!
77
What are you doing here?
78
Would you mind giving us some space?
79
Oh, you want some space?
80
I'll give you that.
81
Saying that, he pushed the guy off the bench and made him run off.
82
I was so mad at him.
83
I wanted to break his teeth.
84
But when he showed me his phone, my jaw dropped.
85
The guy was two -timing me.
86
What the heck?
87
I am such an idiot.
88
Yeah, you sort of are.
89
And that's why you're a jerk magnet.
90
Ugh, Danny was so annoying.
91
But I guess perhaps he wasn't all that bad.
92
After that day, he was at least bearable.
93
Things were good, but after I graduated high school, things went south for our family when Dad left us for his girlfriend.
94
Those were the hardest days for us.
95
Mom was sad, and we could barely make ends meet.
96
I knew Danny and I couldn't afford college.
97
It was then that for the first time, Danny and I landed on the same page and decided to find work so we could help Mom.
98
Danny found a job in just one month, while my search felt like it took an eternity.
99
After a long time, luckily, I got a job in a salon.
100
I was so excited about my first day at work that I woke up at 6 in the morning.
101
But when I went there, the owner handed me the scissors.
102
I felt scared.
103
I might have lied on my CV about knowing how to style hair, because once or twice, I gave Danny a bowl cut.
104
Just trim the hair and make it even, got it?
105
Yes, ma 'am.
106
Don't worry.
107
You're in good hands.
108
After I was done, I was so sure the client would love it.
109
But she screamed, You ruined my hair, are you crazy?
110
What?
111
No, it looks good.
112
What happened next wasn't a surprise.
113
I was fired and banned from working at any salon ever.
114
Um, to set the record straight, that hairstyle is totally in fashion these days.
115
After losing that job, I was a bit disappointed, and one day, I was just lazing around the house, Danny came over to me.
116
Hey, Couch Potato, what do you have planned for Mom's birthday?
117
Oh, it just slipped my mind.
118
How about I cook the food and you take care of the rest?
119
The party we threw was awesome.
120
When it was time for dinner, everyone praised my cooking skills.
121
Mom and all the guests loved the food.
122
Oh, yum!
123
Honey, you made snacks and a whole Italian meal?
124
I'll give you 10 out of 10.
125
I never had time to cook these fancy things for you.
126
Where did you learn this from?
127
Really?
128
Yay!
129
Mom, I learned it from YouTube and sort of gave my own touch to the recipes.
130
It was the first time I'd felt so happy in a while.
131
Come on, it's just food.
132
What's the big deal?
133
Anyone can cook.
134
Really?
135
Then you won't mind ordering food for yourself, will you?
136
Okay, okay, I was just kidding.
137
I must say that it's good.
138
But please, don't be one of those people who constantly puts their food pics on Instagram.
139
For the first time in years, Danny had a good point. So, I did the opposite of what he said and made a Facebook page
140
and an Instagram account where I posted pictures of everything I cooked.
141
One day, I got a call from a lady who was at mom's party.
142
She told me she wanted me to cook for her son's birthday.
143
OMG, are you serious?
144
Um, I mean, thanks a lot.
145
I'm glad you liked my cooking that much.
146
It was something new, but I gave it my best shot.
147
And the whole thing turned out great.
148
It was a couple of weeks later that I found out
149
that she was some big -time influencer who reviewed my food on her Instagram account.
150
And because of that, I started getting orders for my food.
151
While I focused on my home business, I hoped that one day I'd have my own restaurant.
152
Meanwhile, Danny got married to a girl way out of his league.
153
Back in high school, Kyla used to be the most popular girl and was always mean to me for some reason.
154
But since she and Danny soon moved out and I got his huge room, I was ecstatic.
155
Things were going great until I was scammed by a customer.
156
He gave me a big order, didn't pay me, and worse, vanished.
157
It was a big loss for me.
158
Even though I was getting orders, I didn't have much to buy ingredients.
159
So reluctantly, I asked Danny for a loan and promised to pay him back.
160
But the moment his wife heard me, her face twisted.
161
What?
162
No, we don't even have enough to pay our bills.
163
Why don't you look for a job?
164
You'll definitely get one.
165
It's been long enough since you've been sitting at home, and it's not like your cooking is so perfect.
166
Thank you so much, Kylie.
167
Next time I want unwanted advice, I know where to go.
168
Danny, I'm talking to you.
169
I waited for Danny to respond, but he said nothing.
170
So I just left out of embarrassment.
171
Sometime later, there was a hurricane in our town, and the roof of Danny's house collapsed.
172
So he had no choice but to move in with us.
173
I was fine with it.
174
But one day, Danny's wife demanded that I give him his room back.
175
While I was totally against it, Mom kept nagging about it, and I had had enough.
176
No, Mom, it's mine now.
177
He left, remember?
178
See ya.
179
Don't talk to her that way.
180
I'd never talk to you like that, Mom.
181
If I wanted to hear from a butt, I'd fart.
182
Do not butt in next time.
183
That really had pissed her off.
184
But in the end, I had to do what
185
Mom asked me to do.
186
While Danny and his wife were at our place, it was getting harder and harder to stay at home.
187
I decided to look for jobs again, and I interviewed for many jobs at restaurants,
188
thinking my experience as a home cook would help but it didn't.
189
After another unsuccessful interview, I was in the elevator when someone tapped on my shoulder.
190
Oh my god, it's really you.
191
You're Sia.
192
I followed your Instagram account.
193
I'm a regular customer.
194
A fan, probably.
195
Creepy?
196
Um, okay.
197
Just as the elevator stopped, I wanted to run, but what the guy said made me stop.
198
Hey, look, I'm Carter.
199
Um, I run an event management company, and we are looking for someone who can make food for our events.
200
I know you must be busy, but maybe think about it.
201
Okay, I'll let you know.
202
The moment I was home, I called Carter and landed the contract.
203
I was jumping with joy.
204
I put my all in and the event went amazingly.
205
Soon, I started to work with Carter more often.
206
Carter and I had amazing chemistry, and every time he was around, I would be giggling at his jokes.
207
We soon started dating, and a couple of months later, he proposed to me, and I said yes.
208
The very next day, I invited
209
Carter to meet my family, but what happened next? shook me.
210
The moment Carter entered the house, Danny's wife started acting weird.
211
Carter?
212
Ah, it's nice to see you after a long time.
213
I missed you.
214
Did you miss me?
215
Please, don't flatter yourself, Kylie.
216
What is she talking about?
217
Wait a minute, do you two know each other?
218
Turns out, Carter and Kylie had dated a long time ago, until he found out she was cheating on him and then dumped her.
219
Wow, talk about a small world.
220
Well, when Danny learned this, he was bent on having me break things up with Carter.
221
Do you think it's that easy?
222
If so, why don't you leave Kylie?
223
I love him a lot.
224
I can't just leave him.
225
Danny just got so angry.
226
Carter and I got married a month later.
227
Danny and Kylie didn't attend the wedding, and that was fine with me.
228
Soon we both moved to another city where we were living our best life.
229
One time, I called mom and she told me how Kylie was sick, so Danny was struggling to meet expenses.
230
I felt sad and just wished things would turn out well for him.
231
As for my work, it only got better and better.
232
And my dream to one day have my own restaurant was soon going to be a reality.
233
I so wanted to share this with mom, so I visited her.
234
But to my shock, Danny and Kylie were also there.
235
I hadn't seen them since I left the city with Carter.
236
I was surprised to see that Kylie was expecting, and I was so happy for them.
237
Even though Kylie gave me the cold shoulder, I put on a smile and greeted her.
238
As we were having lunch, mom asked me how I was doing and I told her all about my plans of expanding the business.
239
I'm now going to buy a place for my own restaurant.
240
I'm so nervous, but also excited because I worked so hard for this.
241
Show off.
242
Everyone knows you have a rich husband and can afford anything.
243
So what hard work?
244
Her words really pissed me off.
245
Jealousy is a disease, honey.
246
I hope you get well soon.
247
Jealous of you?
248
Someone who left her mom the moment she got married?
249
You are just like your dad.
250
That did it.
251
But before I could say anything, Danny snapped.
252
Just cut it out.
253
You have no idea.
254
Just keep your mouth shut.
255
You didn't even let me attend her wedding.
256
She even...
257
I kicked his leg under the table to stop him.
258
Don't try and stop me, Sia.
259
She needs to know about your kindness.
260
About how you helped us in our time of need.
261
Kylie, Sia paid all your medical bills and even paid for the renovation of our house after the hurricane.
262
I'm so sorry for all the times I picked on you and for being a bad brother.
263
You helped us out despite all of this.
264
I owe you big time.
265
Saying that, Danny hugged me tightly.
266
Kylie, if you love me, you gotta respect my family.
267
Hearing all this, Kylie looked so shocked and stormed out.
268
We stayed at my mom's place for a week, and when it was time for us to go, Kylie entered my room and apologized.
269
I am sorry, Sia.
270
I thought about everything, and I realized how wrong I was.
271
How badly I treated you right from the start.
272
You were so kind all the time.
273
Well, I am glad you realized it.
274
Maybe let's give our relationship another try?
275
I am kind of thankful to you for taking my brother off our hands.
276
Gosh, he can be so annoying.
277
True that.
278
Kylie, we're sister -in -laws by chance, but perhaps we can be friends by choice?
279
What do you think?
280
Oh, that's a pretty good idea, and I hope my daughter will grow up to be as strong and kind as you.

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.
