1
I'm Maya from New Orleans.
2
Please like and subscribe to 4EVE.
3
I lived in an old house with Dad who worked as a potter.
4
Mom left us when I was four to make it as a big movie star and never came back.
5
With gorgeous hair and porcelain white skin, I looked exactly like her.
6
And no one believed my dad and I were related, especially our nosy neighbors.
7
Once when I was six, Dad got a big order from the city.
8
He worked all night to make all 20 vases.
9
I was admiring them when I accidentally knocked them off, shattering them to pieces.
10
I'm so sorry, Dad.
11
I didn't do it intentionally.
12
It's okay, Maya.
13
Don't worry.
14
I'll make new ones.
15
But Dad couldn't make them in time, and he lost the order.
16
He was devastated.
17
Things got worse when the police knocked at our doors later that night.
18
Our nosy neighbors heard the crashing sound and thought I was in trouble.
19
Dad tried to convince them, but they only left when I showed them my birth certificate it.
20
I begged dad to give the neighbors a piece of his mind, but he was a softie.
21
They're just concerned.
22
No, they're crazy.
23
Things didn't change much even as I grew up.
24
We struggled with money, but I was happy as long as I had my dad.
25
On my 10th birthday, dad took me to a mall and asked me to buy whatever I wanted.
26
I saved it for your birthday, dear.
27
You deserve it.
28
But dad, I don't want anything, and we could use this money.
29
But he was dead set that I should buy something.
30
I walked in
31
but the store manager refused to let dad get in you won't be able to afford anything here why not
32
we have money and we're here just like everyone else the manager made a face
33
and refused us straight to our faces eventually dad gave in
34
and we left it was humiliating
35
that day i decided i'd never let anyone bully us like
36
that soon after i got into boxing and by the time i was in 12th grade.
37
I was the toughest girl in my class, and I started participating in all the major competitions around town and aced them all.
38
One time during practice, I felt a sharp pain in my hand.
39
Dad took me to the doctor, who confirmed I had a minor sprain and needed some rest and medicine.
40
But Dad looked extra worried.
41
Dad, relax.
42
It's just a small sprain.
43
It's not that.
44
Your mom called this morning.
45
She wants you to complete your school year with her.
46
What?
47
No way!
48
She never looked back once, and now it's too late.
49
This is only temporary till I look for a job.
50
I don't even have the money to buy your meds.
51
And you'll be starting college soon.
52
I'll work hard and win a scholarship.
53
I'm good at what I do.
54
Please don't send me away.
55
But I knew
56
Dad had made up his mind
57
when the next morning a big car arrived in front of my house with Mom in it.
58
When she saw me, she hugged me tightly.
59
Oh, my sweet Maya.
60
You're all grown up and so pretty, just like me.
61
I pulled myself away as mom smiled at me.
62
It was the first time I'd seen her after so long.
63
If not for her movies, I would have never recognized her.
64
I am nothing like you.
65
And please, don't think that I'm happy to do this.
66
As long as I have you.
67
Mom got her staff to pack my stuff, and I was ready to move within minutes.
68
I was still unsure if this was a good idea,
69
but dad promised he'd get me soon and we'd be together again so I left him with a heavy heart.
70
The next few days in mom's mansion were a nightmare.
71
I wanted quiet time away from her, but she was stuck to me like gum in your hair.
72
I was forced to take long walks with her and go on unnecessary shopping trips.
73
And then one day, she changed my entire wardrobe.
74
Where's all my stuff?
75
Your old stuff was rotten, so I threw it away.
76
But those things were important to me.
77
Dad gave me those things.
78
I want it back.
79
You're my daughter.
80
I can't let people see you as a poor girl anymore.
81
So, that's what it's all about?
82
That's why you took me away from Dad?
83
Stop twisting my words.
84
I was just too angry to hear her out and slam the door shut on my way out.
85
Every passing day I spent there made me miss
86
Dad even more.
87
But he spoke to me whenever he could, and I was happy.
88
When Mom told me I'd start school soon, I couldn't be more excited
89
Anything to get away from her would work.
90
On the day I was supposed to start school, I woke up late to my mom screaming at someone.
91
I went down to see it was the cook, and a boy stood next to him holding a bagel.
92
How dare he steal from our kitchen!
93
But I found this in a pile of food you were throwing away, ma 'am.
94
I'm talking to your father.
95
If your son does this again, I'll fire you.
96
They nodded and left.
97
I went after the boy to see him give that bagel to a helpless girl on the sidewalk.
98
That was the kindest thing I'd seen since I'd come here.
99
When he looked in my direction, I noticed how cute he was.
100
She was hungry.
101
I'm not some thief.
102
But your mother didn't seem to believe me.
103
I believe you.
104
I'm Maya.
105
He introduced himself as Zach, the cook's son.
106
We exchanged smiles, and when the driver arrived, he continued on his way.
107
At least there was one kind person in this strange place.
108
My first day of school was nothing like I'd imagined.
109
Thanks to my mom, everyone knew who I was, and to make things more awkward, a really good -looking guy approached me in the hallway.
110
Wow, you're even prettier than your mom.
111
I looked at him clueless.
112
I'm Marco.
113
Your mom must have mentioned me.
114
She's best friends with my parents.
115
Nope.
116
Doesn't ring a bell.
117
I started walking to class, but Marco stopped me again.
118
I wasn't done talking, princess.
119
Too bad.
120
I was, and I'm late for class, Franco.
121
Marco.
122
Don't care.
123
After that day, Marco did everything to get my attention.
124
He started showering me with expensive gifts and flowers, and it almost looked like he was on a mission to get me to date him.
125
Only later did I learn he was the mayor's son and one of the most powerful guys in town.
126
Not that I cared.
127
I already had an obsessive mom, so my hands were full.
128
One day, it was mom's movie success party and the entire town was invited.
129
She was so excited that she even bought us matching dresses and begged me to wear them.
130
We'll look like twins, baby.
131
It'll be fantastic.
132
First, that's weird.
133
And secondly, that dress looks like poop.
134
I'd rather wear a tent.
135
There was no way I was doing anything she wanted me to.
136
So I went ahead and bought myself the weirdest dress I could find, just to embarrass her.
137
The party was boring, and my eyes hurt from all that bling.
138
And when I saw
139
Marco enter, I knew I had to get out of there.
140
I tiptoed my way into the kitchen, but banged into Zach.
141
Are you okay?
142
Hey, I'm just trying to ignore someone.
143
The guy in white who looks like he eats money for breakfast?
144
Yeah, how did you know?
145
Zach pointed in Marco's direction, who was frantically searching for someone under the tables.
146
We burst out laughing, and I noticed what a heart -melting smile Zach had.
147
Come here, I'll show you a great hiding place.
148
He pulled me toward the back entrance, leading to a sprawling garden.
149
It was beautiful.
150
Our eyes met for a second, and I felt a weird rush in my tummy.
151
Ahem, so why were you hiding from him?
152
He's just an idiot from school I'm trying not to punch.
153
I wish I could return home and get away from this place.
154
You really hate it here, don't you?
155
I nodded.
156
Zach and I walked around and started talking.
157
He told me how he was saving up for culinary school and wanted to be a chef someday.
158
And I told him my story.
159
Boxer, huh?
160
Show me your moves.
161
I know a little boxing myself.
162
Don't say I didn't warn you.
163
I tried to do a fake box in the air, but ended up hitting Zach smack in his face.
164
That was good.
165
Ow.
166
Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
167
Are you hurt?
168
As I tried to check for any broken bones, Zach moved in closer and tucked my hair behind my ears.
169
I felt my knees go weak.
170
Better.
171
His eyes caught my attention because they were a gorgeous shade of green and could make anyone swoon.
172
I wasn't paying attention when I noticed a flash from the corner of my eye
173
and then a hundred people started taking pictures of us.
174
I turned to run, but saw mom staring at me with eyes blazing like fire.
175
It's bad enough that you're dressed like a joker, and now you're flirting with the help?
176
His name is Zach, and he's my friend.
177
That looked more than friends.
178
You embarrass me, Maya.
179
Why don't you just abandon me then?
180
You're good at that.
181
Mom and I got crazy on each other, and the party fell silent.
182
You rude child.
183
I saved you from your pathetic father, and this is how you repay me?
184
Mom reached for me, but she tripped over a rock and fell into the life -sized fountain.
185
Her makeup washed off her face, and she looked like a zombie.
186
I knew I'd taken it too far.
187
I stepped forward to help her, but Marco reached before me and helped her out.
188
I apologized to mom the following day, but she ignored me.
189
Zach and I were all over the news, and as a result, his dad was fired and they left.
190
He was my only friend here, and I missed him so much.
191
With Dad not responding to me either, I was left all alone.
192
Soon after, Marco and Mom started working on a movie together, because Mom recommended him.
193
It was bad enough I had to deal with that fame -hungry, good -for -nothing brat in school, and now he was always at home.
194
A week before my 18th birthday, I was already feeling low, so I decided to treat myself to some ice cream.
195
But while I was walking back home, I saw a hooded figure following me.
196
Come out, you jerk!
197
What are you hiding your face for?
198
I was all set to knock his teeth out, when suddenly the guy came forward and revealed his face.
199
Zach!
200
Oh my god, you got me there for a second.
201
Sorry, didn't mean to scare you.
202
Scared my butt?
203
Why are you following me?
204
I work in a store nearby.
205
I saw you come in, and I just had to talk to you.
206
Maya, your mom is hiding something from you.
207
Zach told me that when he was fired, he'd gone back to collect his check when he heard mom talking to someone over the phone.
208
She said something about a big deal, and Marco is involved too.
209
Just check her office.
210
No wonder that jerk is always home.
211
And he's also involved in her new film.
212
What could this be about?
213
I don't know, but it's something big.
214
Thanks, Zach.
215
I always knew my mom was up to something.
216
Maybe it's time I got my answers.
217
One more thing.
218
Zach moved closer and kissed me lightly on my forehead.
219
Please be careful.
220
I like you a lot, in case that wasn't clear.
221
I thought I lost my chance after that black eye I gave you, but I'm glad to know I didn't.
222
Before leaving, I pulled Zach in for a magical kiss, and then I started with my secret mission.
223
But I had no idea what I was looking for or where I would find it.
224
With Marco around the house, I had to be extra careful.
225
I found my opportunity when mom offered to throw me an 18th birthday party.
226
She'd be busy with the guests, and I could snoop around the office.
227
She got me the most beautiful dress and even hired someone to do my makeup.
228
I hated everything, but I didn't want to draw any attention, so I agreed.
229
The whole house was filled with guests on my birthday that evening, and I spotted mom in the corner talking to Marco.
230
This was the perfect moment.
231
I went to mom's study and found some papers in a red mailer about some land deal.
232
I was just opening them when Marco walked in.
233
He saw me and grinned, and I had the weirdest feeling ever.
234
You're a sight for sore eyes, sweet face.
235
That dress looks amazing on you.
236
Shut up, moron.
237
That's not how you talk to your fiancé, sweetheart.
238
Is this some kind of sick joke?
239
Well, your mom would answer that better.
240
Why don't we ask her together?
241
Marco took my arm and pulled me outside.
242
When mom saw that, she came rushing and pushed him away.
243
What are you doing?
244
Just bringing the truth out.
245
Mom, what's happening and what are these papers about?
246
Mom looked at me in shock as the color drained from her face.
247
Why don't I do the honors?
248
Marco told me that mom wanted to open a film academy but had money issues, so his dad pitched in.
249
In return, she promised them a role for Marco and our marriage.
250
But now, she doesn't seem to believe me.
251
Maybe she'll believe you.
252
I looked at mom in shock, and she stayed silent.
253
She totally did it.
254
What kind of mother are you?
255
First you abandon me, then you take me away from dad, and now you want to use me as bait?
256
My beauty won't last forever.
257
So I had to think for myself, and I don't regret it one bit.
258
You will marry
259
Marco, and that's final.
260
Not without my approval.
261
Don't forget you've signed over full custody to me.
262
I turned around to see my dad looking angrier than ever.
263
I rushed to him and hugged him tight.
264
Dad, I'm so glad you're here.
265
Maya, there's someone I'd like you to meet.
266
We all turned around and I was completely shocked to see Zach walk in.
267
He told us how Zach had called him a few days back and told him I was in trouble.
268
I was out of town to set up my pottery school.
269
I wish I could have come sooner.
270
You're just in time.
271
As mom and dad argued, I walked up to Zach.
272
Marco tried to butt in, but I kicked him so hard, I'm sure he'll limp for days.
273
I took Zach's hand as he smiled at me.
274
Thank you.
275
You truly are amazing.
276
Not half as amazing as you.
277
I'm moving to Paris to study.
278
Wanna join?
279
I'll follow you anywhere.
280
Zach and I kissed as I said goodbye to this fake life forever.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
