1
Hi, I'm Kate from New York, and this is my story.
2
Please like and subscribe.
3
I was born to the CEOs of a multi -million dollar aerospace company.
4
I grew up with everything a kid could want, and then some.
5
But I was practically raised by my nannies since my parents were always busy.
6
They tried to make time for me, but I didn't really have their attention.
7
And I craved it.
8
I think that's why I was in such a hurry to start talking.
9
I was forming my first words when I was only one, and by the time I was two, I could speak short sentences.
10
And once I started talking properly, a rocket couldn't have stopped me.
11
How was your first day of school, honey?
12
Oh, it was so good.
13
I felt kind of scared,
14
but then the teacher with the black hair and the green eyes and the big ears came and took me to class,
15
and my classroom was so nice and it's all yellow and there was 20, no, 21, no, wait, no, 20 kids and they're all my friends.
16
That's because I gave them all markers and my first class was about alphabets
17
and it was boring and then I saw a boy's butt crack
18
and I started laughing at it and Zitra looked mad but then...
19
Sweetie, that's lovely.
20
Why don't you just eat your food now?
21
I was at the best part, daddy.
22
Now I have to start again.
23
Okay, so my first day of school, I just had this need to interact with people.
24
I chatted to strangers in the park, at the grocery store, at the cinema.
25
When my friends came over for playdates, I had tried to make them stay as long as I possibly could.
26
But you haven't seen our basement yet.
27
It's really cool and I think it's haunted.
28
And you still haven't met my imaginary friends.
29
Okay, how about I show you my magic tricks?
30
I even talked to people in my sleep.
31
My parents found me exhausting and soon my teachers started complaining about my disruptive behavior in class.
32
I was tested for ADHD but there wasn't anything wrong with me.
33
She's very bright and just seeks attention a little more than other kids.
34
It's not uncommon in an only child and she'll grow out of it.
35
Do you spend quality time with her?
36
Well, we try, but we're very, very busy.
37
The doctor recommended some activities we could do together every day, but of course, my parents couldn't keep up.
38
Then one day when I was eight, my whole life changed.
39
I got home from school to find my parents in the
40
living room with a beautiful older girl who didn't look very happy.
41
Kate, we have some exciting news.
42
Come meet Lola.
43
She's 11, and she's your new sister.
44
She's my sister?
45
But I didn't see your tummy growing, Mom.
46
Where did she come from?
47
Why is she so big?
48
Why is her hair red?
49
Honey, she's our employee's daughter, and we've adopted her.
50
I'll explain to you later what that means.
51
Why don't you say hello and show her to her room?
52
Lola still hadn't spoken a word, but I talked nonstop as I took her hand and led her away.
53
And then she shut the door in my face.
54
She didn't even come down for dinner later.
55
My parents said she just needed time to adjust and I should give her space.
56
I tried really hard, but I just couldn't fall asleep and crept into her room.
57
I quietly opened the door and found her sitting next to a carton crying.
58
Lola, what's wrong?
59
Nothing.
60
I was just looking at some old things and it made me sad.
61
Ooh, space boots.
62
My dad got them for me when I was your age.
63
I always wanted to be an astronaut.
64
Well, you should.
65
It'll be so cool.
66
Yeah, but my dad won't be there to see me become one.
67
As the tears rolled down her cheeks, I suddenly hugged her tight and she didn't push me away.
68
I'll be there to see you take off on a rocket.
69
I'll always be there for you, Lola.
70
Lola smiled, then suddenly hopped onto the arm chair and held out a hand to me.
71
Want to take a closer look at the Milky Way?
72
Welcome aboard the North Star Express.
73
We imagined flying through the universe, dodging meteors and alien spaceships, and it was the best night of my life!
74
And I quickly grew to love Lola.
75
She had long red hair that she let me braid as much as I wanted.
76
She'd play with me whenever I asked, even if she was in the middle of something.
77
And soon, I became as obsessed with everything space -related as she was.
78
We both dressed up in matching
79
Princess Leia outfits that Halloween, and everyone in the neighborhood agreed we looked incredible.
80
Let's be Buzz Lightyear next time!
81
Sure thing!
82
Lola was an excellent student too, and she helped me with my studies.
83
But my teacher still complained about my behavior, and Lola had a solution for that too.
84
I used to get really scared of making speeches in class, so my dad showed me a trick.
85
I'd hold onto a penny so I could channel all my fear into it.
86
It totally works.
87
So whenever you feel the urge to talk during lessons, just hold onto this and channel all your energy into it,
88
and save all your stories for me.
89
My parents were so proud of my progress
90
and they adored lola life seemed perfect but then lola started high school
91
and everything started changing she cut her beautiful hair short
92
and changed her wardrobe and
93
when i asked her to do something with me she always had an excuse i have a club meeting after school.
94
I'm meeting up with a couple of friends.
95
I have a paper to finish.
96
Sorry.
97
On the weekends, she started interning at my parents' company, and we spent no time together.
98
But the perfect opportunity came on my 13th birthday
99
when my parents gifted me tickets to an amazing space park and even arranged a hotel stay for me and Lola.
100
I'd barely seen her at home lately, so the next day at school, I ran over to her at recess.
101
Hey, Lola, guess what we're doing on my birthday?
102
We're going to Space World, and we'll have the whole weekend to ourselves Woo -hoo!
103
This weekend?
104
I completely forgot it was your birthday.
105
I'm going to a concert with my friends.
106
What do you mean?
107
It's my birthday.
108
Well, we can do it another weekend.
109
But how could you forget?
110
If you won't come to Space World, then at least take me to the concert with you.
111
No way.
112
No toddlers allowed.
113
Of course I'm not bringing her.
114
We always spend our birthdays together, Lola.
115
What's wrong with you?
116
You've changed so much, and now, will you stop being a baby?
117
The universe doesn't revolve around you.
118
I have a life, and it doesn't have to include you all the time.
119
Why can't you make friends of your own?
120
You're being annoying.
121
Lola had never spoken to me that way before, and I ran off before she could see my tears.
122
I hid in the janitor's closet and was crying my eyes out, when suddenly, I jumped out of my skin.
123
A boy from my class, Jamie, was sitting on a bucket and casually eating his lunch.
124
What are you doing here?
125
I could ask you the same thing.
126
I'm crying, can't you see?
127
I'm eating a sandwich.
128
Can't you see?
129
Do you want one?
130
This is really not a good sandwich.
131
Oh, I know that.
132
And I have to eat two every day.
133
My sister never eats her lunch because she hates it, and I don't want to hurt mom's feelings.
134
But why are you hiding in the closet?
135
Aren't you one of the cool skateboarding kids?
136
Yeah, but I like being alone sometimes.
137
I have three older sisters and the youngest one who practically lives in my room.
138
She's so annoying.
139
My house is almost empty and my sister's too busy for me.
140
She's like you, I guess.
141
She finds me annoying now.
142
Yeah, so how about you back off a bit?
143
And dude, your house sounds like heaven.
144
Jamie and I became friends that day and soon I started inviting him over.
145
We play video games and have arm wrestling matches.
146
He even taught me how to skate.
147
And maybe he was right.
148
I just needed to give Lola some space to fix things between us.
149
Except they got so much worse.
150
Over a few months, Lola changed into this person I no longer recognized.
151
She suddenly ended the internship, saying she didn't want to work at my parents' company anymore.
152
One day, I walked past her room to see
153
that she'd torn down her Neil Armstrong poster and replaced it with Justin Bieber.
154
She was never home for dinner because she was out with her friends, and even her grades began to suffer.
155
Late one night in ninth grade, when my parents were away, I woke up to some sound and spotted Lola outside in the garden,
156
kissing a strange boy.
157
I sneaked out to get a closer look, but then they both climbed onto his bike and left.
158
I hopped onto my bicycle and pedaled fast to keep up.
159
And to my surprise, they ended up outside my parents' company and then started putting on ski masks and gloves.
160
We don't have a lot of time.
161
The security guards will be coming by in an hour.
162
I'll get you into the system, and you have to make sure the software is completely wrecked, okay?
163
Are you sure about this?
164
Yes, I'm sure.
165
Okay, okay, just checking.
166
It'll only take me 30 minutes, babe.
167
Hold it.
168
What do you think you're doing, Lola?
169
Kate, did you follow me here?
170
Yeah, and good thing I did.
171
Are you insane?
172
Why are you planning on wrecking our parents' software?
173
Your parents are not my parents.
174
And there are things you won't understand.
175
I'm not a kid anymore, so try me.
176
You wouldn't believe me if I did, but trust me, your parents deserve this.
177
After adopting you and raising you as their own kid, they only adopted me to be your companion.
178
They were too busy to deal with you themselves, so they dumped you on me.
179
That's what I am?
180
A burden you got dumped with?
181
I thought I was your sister, and you've been my everything.
182
I've always looked up to you, and now I don't even know who you are.
183
I didn't ask you to make me your role model, and you're right.
184
You don't know me.
185
And you don't even know your parents.
186
What do you mean?
187
Please, Lola, let's just go home and talk, okay?
188
I'm not letting you into that building anyway.
189
I'll call security myself this minute if you try.
190
Lola looked furious, then took her boyfriend's hand and left with him.
191
Feeling shaken, I was riding back on my bicycle when I missed a speed breaker and went flying.
192
My head hit the ground and everything went black.
193
When I woke up, I was in the hospital with my parents, Lola, and Jamie in the room.
194
Oh, thank God you're finally awake.
195
We still can't believe that you went cycling out alone so late at - night if Lola hadn't found you.
196
I looked over at Lola, sitting with her head hanging, and then she quietly left.
197
I was discharged soon from the hospital, and I knew I just had to talk to Lola soon.
198
But the next morning when I went to her room, she was gone.
199
My parents reported her missing to the police, and they searched high and low.
200
But it seemed like she'd just vanished.
201
Mom, Dad, why do you think she was so mad at you guys?
202
You must have some idea.
203
Sweetheart, we don't know, really.
204
We'll find her, and whatever it is, we'll fix it.
205
But months went by with no news, and I almost gave up hope.
206
I even shut out Jamie, and my grades were falling rapidly.
207
I just wanted to know if my sister was okay.
208
One rainy day, I was walking out of a coffee shop
209
when I spotted a girl with red hair getting onto a bus, and she turned her face just a little.
210
Lola!
211
I started running after the bus, calling her name, but it just kept going faster.
212
Suddenly, I slipped on a puddle and landed on the pavement.
213
I looked up to see the bus getting smaller in the distance, and my heart broke all over again.
214
Just then, someone helped me up.
215
It was Jamie.
216
He pulled me into a hug, and I cried like a baby.
217
The girl on the bus?
218
That wasn't Lola.
219
I got off that same bus, and I saw her too.
220
It wasn't her.
221
Do you think Lola's okay?
222
Yeah, I think so.
223
She's almost a grown -up, Kate.
224
You can't find her because she doesn't want to be found yet.
225
Till then, you can have all four of my sisters.
226
I started hanging out with Jamie again, and slowly I started getting better.
227
By the time we graduated high school, we'd started dating.
228
I began my degree in astrophysics because I still wanted to be an astronaut, just like Lola and I had dreamt.
229
My parents asked me to visit them one weekend at their office, and when I entered, I was completely shocked to see Lola inside.
230
She looked thinner, but as beautiful as always.
231
Kate, we were waiting for you to start.
232
Lola is here because she's suing our company.
233
Uh, what?
234
Why?
235
Because your parents are responsible for what happened to my dad.
236
What?
237
When I started working as an intern here, I wanted to know more about dad's accident at work.
238
I looked into his records and realized that he'd been working 80 hours a week.
239
Sometimes he'd work both day and night shifts.
240
I'd hardly see him at home because you guys worked him so hard.
241
You caused his heart attack.
242
Lola, he never mentioned any medical condition in his records.
243
and he requested to work overtime for extra money.
244
It was his choice.
245
But it's way beyond the legal limit, and you should have never allowed it.
246
My parents stepped out of the room with their lawyer while my head was still spinning.
247
When they returned moments later, my dad spoke.
248
We don't want to fight our daughter, and you're right, Lola.
249
We never should have allowed that.
250
We didn't realize the toll it might take on him.
251
We'll pay whatever damages you've demanded, with our deepest apologies.
252
And we can't replace your dad, but you will always have a family to come to if you want it.
253
Lola teared up and left the room wordlessly, and I followed.
254
No, you don't get to do that again.
255
You're going to leave without even speaking to me?
256
If only you talked before.
257
I was so angry.
258
I felt rage every time I thought about my dad and the life I never got to have with him.
259
I don't want your parents' money.
260
I just wanted to make them suffer, but I can see I've already done that.
261
maybe it was nobody's fault.
262
Just come home, please.
263
I can't, but I'll make plans to see you in a few days.
264
I promise.
265
And she kept her word when she met me at a cafe a week later with a beautiful red -haired baby.
266
Is this your daughter?
267
Lola then told me that she'd moved to another town with her boyfriend, who she was still happily with,
268
and she'd put herself through community college to study engineering and had also been working on the side.
269
I was so driven to save up for a lawyer to fight your parents.
270
And I've caused everyone so much pain.
271
Most of all, you.
272
I am so sorry.
273
You are in pain yourself, Lola.
274
Just come back and be an astronaut with me.
275
I don't think that's my dream anymore, Kate.
276
It hasn't been for a while.
277
But I'm so proud that you're pursuing yours.
278
And I'll be there to see you take off on a rocket.
279
And I'll always be a part of your life.
280
Four years later, I'm on my first mission to space.
281
And my big sister's face is the proudest.

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.
