Hi, I'm Tanya, and I live in Manhattan.

Before I jump into the juicy stuff, please like and subscribe.

My twin sister Natasha and I were born to super rich parents.

Dad was a successful businessman, and my mom was an ex -supermodel from France.

And a little wacko in the head.

Growing up, mom told us all the amazing things about her country.

Oh, Cherie, it is a beautiful country.

So many good places to go and huge gardens.

I miss it.

Mom made France sound like a paradise.

And while I got attracted to its beauty, language, and culture, Natasha was fascinated by its fashion and style.

I wanted to go there so badly that I practically begged my dad every year for a vacation.

Not this year, princess.

Maybe when my Natasha becomes a famous model, we'll all go to Paris Fashion Week, Mom said.

And she was serious.

Mom was obsessed with making Natasha a supermodel.

She got her to participate in all the baby pageants, and by the time we turned five,

Natasha's face was on every cereal box in the country.

She was famous and evil.

At school, she walked around like she owned the place, and at home, she was horrible to all the people who worked for us.

She flaunted the fact that she was half French, and the worst was when she spoke in her terrible French accent.

One time, Natasha caught our maid's son plucking flowers from our garden, and she went crazy.

How dare you?

That is my favorite flower.

Didn't your mother tell you it is illegal to pluck flowers from my garden, stupid?

The boy looked confused as hell.

What?

You're fired, you moron.

The poor boy was horrified, and the next day he left with his mother.

He was just a kid.

Why do you have to be so rude all the time?

Why do you have to be so rude?

Because I can and because he deserved it.

Who knows what else he might have stolen?

Don't be such a wuss now.

Dad tried his best to be there for me, but he was hardly ever around.

He was always flying on business trips and bought us the most expensive gifts.

When everyone was asleep, he would secretly slip in an extra gift just for me.

This is the author's copy of your favorite book.

Enjoy!

Thanks, Dad.

I love you.

Eventually, I got tired of gifts and realized that this was his way of making up for his absence.

Years flew by, and finally, we turned 16.

Mom and Dad went out and planned the most amazing sweet 16 party for us.

That day at school, I couldn't wait to go home.

Dad promised to buy me the latest iPad, and I was over the moon.

But as always, he got busy, and I was stuck with the devil duo.

While Mom made Natasha try a thousand dresses, I just sat in the corner with a book and waited for this misery to end.

Oh my god, you're such a buzzkill.

Can't you behave like a normal teenager for once?

You mean normal like you are?

No thank you.

It was the best party ever.

And when everyone left, Dad introduced us to some of his old friends who ran a successful modeling agency in LA.

He had trained some of the most famous supermodels in the world.

He came with his son Ryan who was drop -dead gorgeous and the most attractive guy I'd ever seen.

He had big blue eyes and the body of a demigod.

And don't even get me started on the hair.

Girls, Ryan will be joining your school from tomorrow, so make sure you show him around.

Oh, I could do that, Daddy.

No problem.

Natasha beamed like she would take a bullet for Ryan.

This was the first time she moved her butt to help anyone but herself, so I was genuinely confused.

It was only later when I heard her talk to Mom that I understood why she was so excited to help Ryan.

He's a dumb boy, but his father can help you get to the top, baby.

Make sure he falls for you, mon amour.

The next day, the entire school was drooling over Ryan's looks.

As if Natasha wasn't high -headed enough, now her popularity went shooting off the roof with Ryan as her arm candy.

And Ryan followed her like a lost puppy all the time.

Ryan, honey, please get me my salad.

Don't forget the toppings.

No fatzo.

I can't lose my precious figure.

Coming right up, princess.

He went rushing to give Natasha a fat -loaded burger with a milkshake.

No wonder he got it wrong with her pulling off that incredible accent.

And that's when I knew that whatever little crush I had on him was long gone, and he was all charm and no brains.

The next few days were a blur.

Our school musical was coming up, and I was the lead writer, so I was drowning in work from head to toe.

During the final week of our rehearsals, the drama teacher came running to me.

She looked like she'd seen a ghost.

Tanya, can you change the storyline and not have a male lead at all?

Our lead actor in the play fell and broke his leg.

Holy bananas.

There's no way we could do that on such short notice.

I was losing my mind over the situation.

But just then I saw Ryan walk into the hall.

I was.. passing by when I heard you guys.

I can be your lead guy.

I have a really good memory, and I can learn the lines in no time.

Oh, you're a savior.

No problem.

I gave him his script and asked him to learn everything.

Within 15 minutes, he was all set.

That was fast.

Are you sure you can do this?

I can do it if you're willing to help me.

Practice my lines with me, will you?

100

When he started saying his lines, I stared at him wide -eyed.

101

It was like I'd written the part for him, and he looked perfect with that face and voice.

102

If you keep staring at me, I'll get awkward.

103

Uh, sorry.

104

Anyway, you keep practicing.

105

I gotta go.

106

Have a class.

107

I'll see you tomorrow.

108

I hurried to the door to find Natasha fuming in anger.

109

I had no idea that she'd been standing there all this time, watching us like a hawk.

110

What the hell was that?

111

What was what?

112

I saw how you were looking at him.

113

Listen, you nerd.

114

I know you're my sister and all, but don't you dare make a move on Ryan.

115

He's gonna ask me out, and I don't want you of all people to ruin this.

116

Just dive into your books and buzz off.

117

Okay, you jealous freak.

118

I wasn't making a move on your boy toy.

119

We were practicing for the school musical.

120

Also, why do you care?

121

You don't even like him.

122

You're only using him so you can reach his dad and become famous.

123

Don't make that face.

124

I know what you and mom are plotting.

125

Natasha turned red and charged onto me like a raging bull.

126

We broke into a fight, and by the time our teachers broke us apart,

127

she had a massive blue mark smack in the middle of her face.

128

I have a shoot today, you moron!

129

Look what you've done!

130

Ah, get over it.

131

You're great at hiding things, aren't you?

132

Use some makeup and stay away from me.

133

During rehearsals the next day, Ryan told us that he was having a huge party at his house.

134

It was his birthday, and the whole school was invited.

135

I just have to look my best.

136

I want all eyes on me, especially Ryan's.

137

Natasha said, jumping around like a frog, trying out dresses like a maniac.

138

Wow, real mature.

139

Just as I was about to leave the room to get away from her awful voice, she jumped on my head and said,

140

Why are you running off so soon?

141

Listen, not that I care, but if you do manage to get your boring butt to the party, you will stay away from Ryan.

142

You get me?

143

I will legit throw you in the barn if you say a word to him.

144

Make all the assumptions in the world you want to.

145

I like my life drama -free.

146

And I walked back into the room, leaving Natasha sizzling in anger.

147

The next day after the party, everyone waited for Ryan at the rehearsals, but he never showed up.

148

I called him a million times, but he kept rejecting my calls.

149

I searched and searched for him and finally found him sitting on the bleachers.

150

Hey, we've been waiting for you for the past hour.

151

You should have told us if you were planning to ditch us at the last moment.

152

Go away, Tanya.

153

I'm not in the mood.

154

Ryan looked sad.

155

I sat next to him and asked him what was wrong.

156

Yesterday was my birthday, and all I wanted to do was spend some time with Natasha.

157

I honestly really like her.

158

But she never even wished me a happy birthday.

159

She came to the party, went straight to meet my dad, and then she just vanished.

160

My heart went out to Ryan.

161

He deserved so much better than my evil sister.

162

Natasha can be mean sometimes.

163

She's the pampered one.

164

Hang in there.

165

I'm sure she'll come around.

166

Ryan looked at me with his deep blue eyes and his heart -melting smile, and we went on our way to practice.

167

Our musical was a massive hit, and everyone applauded and congratulated the team.

168

And after that day, Ryan and I started hanging out more often and became best of friends.

169

I was happy I finally had someone to discuss my books and work with,

170

and he was happy because he could finally get answers to all his annoying questions.

171

What does Natasha like to eat?

172

What's her favorite color?

173

What's her favorite perfume?

174

He was obsessed with her.

175

And then one evening when I had just gotten back from school, I saw Ryan standing in the driveway with the prettiest flowers.

176

I'm gonna ask Natasha to be my girlfriend today.

177

I hope she says yes.

178

Oh, that she will, but not for the right reasons.

179

As his friend, I thought it was high time he knew the truth.

180

Natasha was the meanest person on earth and a manipulative witch.

181

And Ryan needed to know before he got his heart broken.

182

I gathered the courage to tell him the truth.

183

But just then, Natasha walked in looking like an angel and Ryan's mouth went flying open.

184

What an idiot!

185

I gorgeous!

186

Don't you look handsome? And flowers? For me?

187

Oh sweet!

188

You're the best, Ryan!

189

With that, they drove off in Ryan's supercar.

190

They deserved each other.

191

The fake beauty with no brains.

192

After about an hour, as I was about to jump into my bed, I got a frantic call from mom.

193

It's your sister.

194

Hurry, come to the hospital.

195

Mom told me that Ryan's car had a terrible accident on their way to the movies and Natasha had been seriously injured.

196

I rushed to the emergency room, panting and falling.

197

to find her sitting with my parents watching an MSA video.

198

What on earth happened?

199

I was terrified.

200

She doesn't look hurt at all.

201

Oh, but I am.

202

See?

203

I scratched my perfect skin.

204

It'll take days for me to heal from this.

205

Do you know how much makeup will go into hiding this?

206

Also, I scratched my ankle.

207

But I'll just wear a new boot, so it's okay.

208

What in the name of Jesus was wrong with this family?

209

Tanya, you should be happy your sister's fine.

210

Ryan's the one who needs help.

211

He slipped into a coma.

212

We've been trying to reach his dad, but he's traveling.

213

And you're telling me this now?

214

I ran to his room and saw his perfect face, scarred with a thousand scratches.

215

God, it broke my heart to see my best friend in that state.

216

With Ryan in the hospital, Natasha went around flirting with every guy at school.

217

And while I visited the hospital every day, she only came when Ryan's dad was around.

218

One day, just after his dad left, she got up and said, What an absolute waste of time.

219

My skin is so stressed with all this drama.

220

And look at my hair.

221

I need to hit the salon so badly.

222

Someone needs to kick that French butt of yours.

223

This guy loves you like a maniac, and all you do is ignore him or use him for his connections.

224

You're such a jerk.

225

Oh, save it, dear sis.

226

I did what I had to to become successful, and I regret nothing.

227

I know you like him.

228

Keep him for all I care.

229

He's no use to me lying in that bed, and his dad just doesn't seem to be taking the hint.

230

I'm too good for him anyway and my perfect body isn't meant to be someone's nanny.

231

With that, she simply turned around and walked off.

232

Unbelievable!

233

Ryan woke up the next day and the doctors told us that his injury would take months to heal.

234

His father took him to one of the best hospitals in the States and they left.

235

I had no way to keep in touch with him now and that made me super anxious.

236

But just then, the biggest opportunity knocked at my door.

237

We were having a writing competition at school

238

and the winner was going to take home a $1 ,000 cash prize and a scholarship to a playwriting school in France.

239

This was a dream come true, and I knew I had to be the best.

240

No excuses.

241

I decided to leave everything aside and give it my all, and when the results were announced, I'd won.

242

On the last day of school, as I was clearing my locker, I turned around to see Ryan walking toward me with a big smile.

243

I was so happy to see my friend.

244

I hugged him tight and said, I'm so glad you're okay.

245

Just then, Natasha screamed from the other corner and came rushing towards Ryan.

246

Oh, mon amour.

247

I missed you so much.

248

I was so worried.

249

Drop the act, Natasha.

250

And while you're at it, drop that accent too.

251

I'm not gonna fall for your tricks now.

252

I know you used me.

253

That day at the hospital while you argued with Tanya, I was awake and I heard everything.

254

You can kiss your dreams of working with my dad goodbye.

255

Ugh, whatever.

256

I was just stressed.

257

That doesn't mean I didn't like you.

258

But Ryan didn't hear a word.

259

Instead, he turned toward me and said, It's been you all along, Tanya.

260

I should have seen it right away, but it took me a while.

261

Please tell me it's not too late.

262

I took his hands in mine and said, Oh, Ryan, I liked you, but you loved Natasha.

263

You only want me now because she treated you like trash.

264

I'm leaving for France tomorrow, but when I'm back, maybe we can go for dinner and talk.

265

Ryan looked at me with love and warmth in his eyes.

266

I know how you've always wanted to go there.

267

I'm happy for you, and I'll wait for you, Tanya.

268

I hugged Ryan and planted a sweet kiss on his cheek before leaving to follow my dreams

269

and take on new adventures in life.

270

Everything else can wait.

271

Thank you.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
