Growing up in a super small town in rural Arkansas meant that if you were different at all, people noticed.

And I was different.

Hi, my name is Ashley, and this is the story of how my biggest burden became my superpower.

And then my burden again.

Ever since I was a toddler, I had a hearing impairment that forced me to wear this really awkward device over my left ear.

My parents told me I could never take it out, that it would be dangerous if I did.

And as I entered tweenhood, I really wanted to.

Paging agent Ashley, do you copy?

Molly, the class clown, was also the class bully.

She would come up and tap on my hearing device.

I said, Ashley, come in.

We have a breach of security.

The class would laugh at her shameless harassment, and the teachers were afraid to stand up to her.

They didn't want to get roasted after all.

My home life wasn't much better.

Mom and Dad were always fighting, and it always seemed like it was about me.

How was school today, honey?

Is that horrible girl still making fun of you?

I was still too busy stabbing my peas with a fork to respond.

I really wasn't in the mood.

Ashley, I said how was school?

Did you hear me?

Of course she heard you.

She can hear.

She's just in one of her moods.

I'm sorry.

I'm just trying to connect with our daughter.

Well, maybe you should give her some space.

All your suffocating isn't helping.

Ugh!

I wish I couldn't hear you both!

I yanked the device out of my ear for the first time ever

and was met with a piercing ringing sound

that I can only imagine feels like what a dog hears when someone blows a dog whistle.

Honey, no!

Mom and Dad rushed over and shoved the device back in my ear.

I nearly passed out from the pain of the noise.

When I came to, I was in shock.

What was that?

That's what happens when you don't listen to us.

That device is there to protect you.

Don't try that again.

Protect me from what, though?

Hearing loss?

Something felt off.

But I didn't dare remove the device again.

I didn't have many friends.

But my parents got me this harmonica bottle.

Despite my hearing issues, blowing into the harmonica cap and playing a tune with every sip brought me joy.

I know it's a small thing.

But isn't life all about the little moments that make us happy?

Check out the link in the description.

When I got to high school, Mom forced me to join an extracurricular in the hopes I would make friends.

So I joined the soccer team, the only sport I was remotely good at.

But I didn't realize

Molly was on the team.

She would tease me for any mistakes I made.

Hey, Trashly, can you turn off your music and focus on scoring a single goal?

During our penultimate season game against our biggest rival,

I was so scared that I would mess up and Molly would never let me hear the end of it.

We were a point away from winning.

The defense was tight.

I had no idea

Molly was planning to pass me the ball.

Ashley, get open!

She kicked the ball midair and I tried to chest bump it.

But instead, I fell flat on my chest, losing us the game.

I thought that thing was supposed to help you here.

I couldn't take it anymore.

I stood up and kicked the soccer ball straight to her head.

I heard you loud and clear.

Bam!

The soccer ball hit her smack in the face.

Fuming, she charged at me.

She tackled me to the ground, and then I felt her yanking on my hearing device.

Give me that thing!

Stop!

Don't!

Help!

I need help!

But before anyone could save me, she pulled out a device and chucked it across the field.

That brutal, painful ringing started reverberating again.

It sent shockwaves through my head and my body.

I fell to my knees and screamed in agony.

And then, silence.

Total, utter silence.

I opened my eyes, stunned by the scene in front of me.

No one was moving.

Everyone was frozen in place.

The ref had his hand around

Molly's wrist, trying to restrain her.

But why was no one moving?

Uh, hello?

Guys?

What is happening?

The thing is, I could hear myself screaming, perfectly clear, even without the hearing aid.

I scanned the field for my device and found it in the goalpost.

I fashioned it back into my ear and was met with that piercing ringing again.

100

But this time, when I opened my eyes, everyone was moving again.

101

Molly was being apprehended by the ref getting dragged off the field.

102

And hovering above me was a boy my age from the opposing team.

103

I thought he was going to say something snarky, but instead he offered me his hand.

104

I'm sorry that happened to you.

105

Oh, weird.

106

Looks like you got your device back.

107

Huh.

108

Anyway, I know what it's like to be bullied.

109

I'm Jasper, by the way.

110

He had these really weird -looking sunglasses secured to his head with a metal wire.

111

I can't take them off, or something about the sun.

112

I don't know.

113

Just stay strong, and don't let it get to you.

114

What they see as your biggest weakness could be your biggest strength.

115

My biggest strength?

116

Okay.

117

There was totally something my parents weren't telling me.

118

I mean, I don't want to jump to conclusions, but something connected to the device seemed to stop time.

119

When I got home, I thought about telling my parents what I had experienced, but I had no idea how they'd react,

120

and I wanted to be sure first.

121

So, I did a little experiment at dinner.

122

Your coach called.

123

Apparently you got into a little tussle with that girl Molly.

124

I'm going to call her mother.

125

Enough is enough.

126

Oh, come on.

127

You think that's what Ashley needs?

128

Her mother interfering? like that's gonna make school easier for her?

129

Would you rather she get tormented every day?

130

I rushed away from the dinner table and locked myself in the bathroom.

131

I couldn't listen to them bicker anymore.

132

I yanked out my earpiece, ready to face that dreadful ringing.

133

When it was over and I opened my eyes, all was silent.

134

The shrill sound of my parents screaming was gone.

135

I was nervous to go back to the kitchen, a million thoughts running through my head.

136

But when I arrived at the dinner table, my parents were right where I left them.

137

My mom's fork waving at dad, spaghetti sauce all over dad's face.

138

Then I realized I couldn't hear the traffic outside, or the baby next door crying, or the wind.

139

I stepped outside to find that I had frozen the entire neighborhood.

140

What if I had caused a catastrophe?

141

I needed to get to the lookout in town to see how far my, uh, quirk extended.

142

My neighbor was frozen on his bicycle and I needed transportation.

143

I snapped a photo of him with my phone so I could put him right back where I found him.

144

Then I picked him up and set him gently on the sidewalk.

145

I hopped on his bike and pedaled to the overlook where I could see all the way out to the water.

146

I looked out onto the horizon, desperately searching for any sign of movement.

147

The river didn't even look like it was flowing.

148

But then I spotted something.

149

A fisherman waiting in the water reeling his fishing rod.

150

I didn't know if I could handle the responsibility of freezing the entire world.

151

I needed to get home and search for answers.

152

But as I turned around, I noticed a row of cars parked.

153

I peered through the windows and saw my classmates making out.

154

Well, frozen mid -makeout.

155

I thought the makeout spot was a total myth.

156

The last thing I needed right now was another reminder of how abnormal I was.

157

I'd never kissed anyone.

158

Then, in one of the cars, I saw a familiar mop of blonde hair against one of the windows.

159

It was Molly.

160

And in the passenger seat was Jasper.

161

What the heck?

162

I had no idea they even knew each other.

163

The guy who saved me from my bully looked like he was mid -arguing with her.

164

Were they dating?

165

Breaking up?

166

I was suddenly filled with rage.

167

I had to do something.

168

I saw a lizard on the ground, picked it up, and dumped it into the crack in the window onto her lap.

169

Then I hid behind a tree, put my hearing device back in, and watched her totally freak out.

170

She jumped out of the car, frantic.

171

Ew, ew, ew!

172

I couldn't help but laugh to myself.

173

I suddenly felt powerful.

174

This wasn't a quirk.

175

It was a strength.

176

Oh, shoot.

177

Totally forgot to return the bike.

178

I sped home, leaving the bike right where I found it.

179

When I got home, my parents were livid.

180

Where were you?

181

We were terrified.

182

We didn't even hear you leave.

183

Sweetie, it's fine.

184

She's home now.

185

You don't have to hover so much.

186

I just went for a bike ride to clear my head, to get away from your arguing.

187

I locked myself in my room, wishing there was a way I could use my powers to make my parents get along.

188

I thought maybe I could, by becoming the social, well -adjusted daughter they'd always wanted.

189

So, I started scheming.

190

First, I would stop time so I could make friends.

191

While I was at my locker, I overheard some cool alternative girls talking about a birthday celebration.

192

The party was fun, but no one got me the electronic baby doll I've wanted since I was a kid.

193

I know, I know I'm grown now, but I've been talking about it forever.

194

It's like my dream gift.

195

I took my earpiece out, suffered through the familiar pain, and sprang into action.

196

I dashed out of school, biked to the nearest toy store, and hunted down the electronic baby doll.

197

Taking a deep breath, I put my earpiece back in, walked up to the group, and smiled.

198

Hey, Brynn!

199

I know yesterday was your birthday and I saw the general invite.

200

I couldn't make it, but here's a little something for you.

201

Oh my god, no way!

202

An electronic baby doll?

203

Yep, she pees and poos.

204

Exactly what I wanted!

205

You're amazing!

206

Give me a hug, dude!

207

I invited Brynn and her crew over to watch a movie.

208

And I could hear

209

Mom and Dad talking about me from the other room.

210

I'm so relieved she's finally made friends.

211

Now if only she could get her grades up.

212

Sure thing, Dad.

213

Okay, time's up.

214

Ashley, walk me through the problem.

215

I was notoriously horrible at algebra, so I thought I'd buy myself some time.

216

The problem?

217

Well, that's easy.

218

I took my earpiece out.

219

Time froze.

220

And then I casually walked over to the smartest girl in the room's desk and copied her notes.

221

I walked back to my seat, put my earpiece back in, and...

222

To isolate the variable, first, subtract 5 from both sides of the equation,

223

simplifying 2x plus 5 minus 5 equals 15 minus 5 to 2x equals 10.

224

Oh, great work!

225

She's a -cheating!

226

Uh -oh, did

227

Molly somehow see me?

228

Someone's feeding her answers through her earpiece.

229

Nope, still just bullying me.

230

But I had an idea for revenge.

231

At our final season -ending soccer game, As Molly was winding up to kick the ball for an easy goal, I froze time.

232

She was halted mid -kick.

233

Then I moved the ball slightly to the right.

234

When I unfroze and she kicked, she fell straight onto her butt, missing the ball completely.

235

Her face turned beet red.

236

Might want to check your eyesight.

237

I swear I had that!

238

And even though it was causing me immense pain to keep freezing time, it was worth it just to see

239

Molly's face when I froze the field, moved the goalpost over ever so slightly, pivoted the goalie, unfroze time, and scored the winning goal!

240

The crowd went wild!

241

All of my teammates lifted me up in celebration, while Molly was pouting off to the side.

242

And after the excitement settled, I saw Jasper making his way toward me.

243

Wow, amazing performance.

244

I didn't know you'd be here.

245

Yeah, my best friend plays on the other team.

246

Hopefully he'll forgive me for talking to the enemy.

247

Hey, do you want to hang out later?

248

I blinked.

249

Uh, seriously?

250

From the corner of my eye, I saw Molly staring daggers at us.

251

You're not dating her?

252

Molly?

253

Ha, no, I'm not dating Molly.

254

I hesitated.

255

I saw...

256

What?

257

What did you see?

258

Never mind.

259

There was an awkward pause, and I needed to do something.

260

So I grabbed my harmonica bottle and took a sip.

261

Then, without thinking, I blew into the cap.

262

A loud, unexpected whistle echoed through the field.

263

Jasper jumped.

264

Did your water bottle just make a sound?

265

For some reason, I decided to play along, acting just as surprised as him.

266

Maybe I wanted to share the excitement.

267

Or maybe I was just really nervous.

268

I blinked down at it, then tried again.

269

A perfect little tune played from the cap.

270

No way.

271

Jasper grinned.

272

Okay, that's actually awesome.

273

Where do you even find something like that?

274

It was a gift.

275

But you can totally get one too.

276

Amazon links in the description.

277

Jasper shook his head, amused.

278

All right.

279

So is that a yes?

280

Yes!

281

Awesome!

282

I'll pick you up in an hour.

283

We can go to the lookout point.

284

I nodded, still holding my harmonica bottle like it had just revealed a secret superpower.

285

Because apparently, it kind of had.

286

I think I visibly gulped.

287

The lookout point?

288

Could this be it?

289

My first kiss?

290

But I was getting ahead of myself.

291

First, I had to finish my take -home algebra test.

292

There was no way I could do it in an hour.

293

So I improvised a little.

294

The janitor had the master key to every room in the school.

295

So when I saw him in the hallways, I just casually froze time and unclasped the keys from his belt.

296

But this time, the pain in my ear was really bad.

297

I had to act quick.

298

I unlocked the teacher's office, carefully searching for the test results, making sure not to move things too badly.

299

Finally, I found it.

300

But just as I was taking photos of the answers, my ears started ringing piercingly loud.

301

I collapsed onto the desk, trying to withstand the pain.

302

But I accidentally knocked the teacher's mug over, spilling old coffee all over the test.

303

I ran out of the office, locked the door, and clasped the keys back onto the janitor's belt before I fell again.

304

Then I put my earpiece back in and fled the school before anyone saw me.

305

I got home and waited for Jasper to pick me up.

306

But he never showed.

307

I'd been stood up.

308

Go figure it out.

309

Furious, I borrowed my neighbor's bike to the lookout.

310

And there Jasper was, wearing his sunglasses at night, sitting on the ridge, desperately clasping Molly's hand.

311

Oh, hey Jasper.

312

So, you stood me up for Molly?

313

Awesome.

314

Wait, are you guys in on this together?

315

Trying to humiliate me?

316

Ashley, no, that's not what this is.

317

Then what is it?

318

What are you really hiding behind your sunglasses?

319

You said you were sensitive to the sun.

320

Well, it's nighttime.

321

Leave us alone, freak.

322

I yanked my earpiece out when the coast was clear and pulled

323

Jasper's sunglasses down from his face.

324

But suddenly, I felt someone's hand grab my wrist.

325

It was Jasper's.

326

Startled, I quickly pushed his glasses back over his face.

327

His hand fell limp.

328

Had he unfrozen?

329

Shoot, shoot, shoot.

330

When I was safely down the hill, I unfroze everything.

331

I'd almost given myself away today.

332

I was getting too careless.

333

I needed to know what was wrong with me before something disastrous happened.

334

So that night, while my parents were sleeping, I sort of froze time to make sure they wouldn't wake up.

335

And I did some digging.

336

In my dad's office, I was shocked to find adoption papers from when I was three years old.

337

I couldn't believe it.

338

I only had more questions.

339

The next morning, mom stormed into my room, livid.

340

Ashley, the school said they caught you sneaking into your teacher's office.

341

Someone spilled coffee on the test answers.

342

What were you thinking?

343

I just wanted to do well in school so I didn't disappoint you and dad.

344

Well, this is disappointing.

345

I said you were putting too much pressure on her.

346

And your backseat parenting method is really working, huh?

347

Guys, stop.

348

I know the truth.

349

You can stop fighting.

350

What are you talking about?

351

Uh, that I was adopted?

352

Did you know about my power?

353

What happens when I take this out?

354

My parents went silent, and I hadn't even stopped time.

355

Guys!

356

It's, uh, complicated.

357

Why don't you sit down?

358

You did know!

359

Seriously?

360

Am I some sort of science experiment?

361

Honey, don't come near me!

362

I couldn't even trust my own parents!

363

I needed to know the truth, and it seemed only

364

Jasper might have the answers.

365

I ran out the front door.

366

When it occurred to me, I had no idea where Jasper lived.

367

Before I reached the end of the road, someone was flashing their headlights at me.

368

Honeywell, explain.

369

Just come home.

370

I started running faster and faster, with Mom tailing behind.

371

Out of breath, I pulled my earpiece out.

372

But amidst the chaos, I dropped it on the road, and then I heard a crunch.

373

Mom's car had stopped, but my hearing device had been crushed.

374

Underneath the front wheel of her car, it was completely destroyed.

375

I desperately tried putting it back into my ear.

376

Come on, come on.

377

But it wasn't working.

378

Time wouldn't start up again.

379

I had to find Jasper, fast.

380

He wasn't at the lookout, so I went to Molly's house.

381

She was sitting on her porch, crying.

382

I pulled her phone out of her pocket and set it in front of her face to unlock it.

383

There was about 20 missed calls from Jasper.

384

I found his address and her contacts, grabbed my bike, and rushed over there.

385

When I arrived at his house, I was stunned.

386

It was basically a shed.

387

I squeezed through the window to find

388

Jasper alone on his couch, frozen in place as he was holding a photo of himself as a child, surrounded by a huge family.

389

I ran to him and removed his glasses, and he unfroze.

390

Huh?

391

Ashley, is that you?

392

What are you doing here?

393

What's going on?

394

I ran outside to see if anything was moving, but time was still frozen.

395

Can you freeze time too?

396

Huh?

397

I grabbed his hand and took him outside to show him.

398

Dead silence.

399

Birds frozen in the sky.

400

But Jasper didn't seem surprised.

401

Oh, wow.

402

I had a feeling you had it too.

403

I haven't met anyone with...

404

What?

405

What's happening?

406

Why did you stand me up for Molly?

407

Does she know?

408

Ashley, I am so sorry.

409

I didn't stand you up.

410

I was scared.

411

Molly is just a former friend who's been making me do stuff for her since she found out about my secret.

412

But it's little stuff.

413

Harmless.

414

Like making her prom queen and voted most lovable in the middle school yearbook.

415

Basically, buying her popularity.

416

What was happening the night I saw you on the bench?

417

I was pleading with her not to spill my secret.

418

I said I didn't want to help her cheat or hack into her ex's phone and sabotage him.

419

You were born October 4th, right?

420

Yeah.

421

Me too.

422

And a handful of others.

423

Anyone in that nursery that day was exposed to some weird chemical that gave us this power to freeze time.

424

These glasses prevent that.

425

Your hearing aid.

426

When my parents found out, they used me.

427

They threatened to expo - expose me, take me to the government or whatever, if I didn't do what they asked.

428

I help them steal and cheat people and get rich.

429

I don't want to hurt anyone, but it seems everyone keeps hurting me.

430

I get that.

431

My parents never even told me I was adopted, and I had to find out about my power on my own.

432

They told me I had hearing issues.

433

It sounds like they were just trying to protect you.

434

I ran away when I was 14, and I have been on my own ever since.

435

It's been excruciating being alone.

436

But now, I found you.

437

Jasper was right.

438

My parents were probably just trying to protect me from the world.

439

It's what they must have been fighting about all this time.

440

I need to save my parents.

441

How do we reverse this?

442

Now that we know the truth about each other, we don't have to.

443

We can get out of this town now.

444

Wherever we are, we'll have the power.

445

And once we are far enough, the town and your parents will unfreeze and go back to normal.

446

It didn't sound half bad, but I couldn't just run from my problems forever.

447

No, I'm sick of manipulating things.

448

Making you like me because I cheated at soccer, making friends because they think I have cool interests, taking shortcuts.

449

It's all a lie.

450

I don't like you because you won at soccer.

451

I like you because you have a pure, genuine heart.

452

I felt I could trust you the moment I met you.

453

If that's true, then help me, please.

454

We have to start time again without running away.

455

And these powers, they need to end.

456

I saw him turn away from me.

457

He looked conflicted.

458

There is a way.

459

My parents made me freeze time

460

and steal a master device from the lab where your hearing device and my glasses were made.

461

They just wanted as much control over my power as they could have.

462

I took it with me when I ran away from home.

463

Activating the master device will restart time but it will overpower our devices, making them useless.

464

Which means I'll lose my powers.

465

Then I'd just be normal.

466

Jasper, there's nothing normal about you.

467

If our powers were in the wrong hands, imagine.

468

But we got them, and it led us to each other.

469

Isn't that enough?

470

Jasper didn't seem so sure, so I did it.

471

I faced my fears, leaned in, and kissed him.

472

And it was super awkward.

473

We both chuckled.

474

See, doesn't it feel nice to be generic?

475

We're just like every other awkward teenager.

476

He kissed me back.

477

And this time, it felt anything but normal.

478

It was magical.

479

Not so normal, huh?

480

Okay, Ashley.

481

Just promise me we can face this world together.

482

No matter what.

483

There's just one thing I think we should do first.

484

Together, we snuck into the school and tied up some loose ends.

485

Then, Jasper took out the master device and activated it.

486

Suddenly, things started to move slowly again.

487

He dropped it to the ground and stomped on it, then threw his glasses on the ground and stepped on them too.

488

I joined him till we smashed them to bits, and everything around us was in motion as usual.

489

Oh, thank goodness.

490

When I got home, my parents were sitting at the kitchen table holding hands.

491

Honey, oh my gosh, I'm so happy you're safe.

492

This is all your fault, Joe.

493

If you hadn't...

494

Stop!

495

Stop blaming each other.

496

I know everything.

497

I know you've both been arguing about how to keep me safe.

498

I just want to know, how come you adopted me?

499

Your birth mom gave you up for adoption when she found out you were different.

500

She was scared.

501

We were competing with another family, a corrupt family, to adopt you so we could protect you.

502

Shoot.

503

Tears were welling up in my eyes.

504

The best way you can protect me is by being nice to each other.

505

We just have different ideas about what's best.

506

And at the end of the day, I appreciate it.

507

I was lucky to be raised by both of you.

508

But I've decided what's best for myself.

509

I saw my parents link arms in anticipation.

510

I destroyed my earpiece.

511

You what?

512

I just want to be normal.

513

With all the pain and beauty that comes with it.

514

My parents clasped hands.

515

I thought they'd be pissed.

516

But instead, they scooped me into a hug.

517

That makes me so happy to hear.

518

Me too.

519

For the first time, it felt like we were all united.

520

Shortly after, Jasper and I started to date.

521

And even though we couldn't freeze time, it seriously felt like time was frozen whenever I'd look into his eyes.

522

I know, so sappy.

523

Don't worry, my mischievous spirit didn't die overnight.

524

That sneaking into the school charade we pulled before smashing his glasses?

525

This year's homecoming queen is...

526

Ashley!

527

What?

528

Jasper?

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
