The Hey,

you're early.

There wasn't a lot of traffic.

I got some stuff on the stove,

but make sure to tell me.

You're cooking?

Great, you're right.

You doing

alright over here?

Yeah, um...

Could be better.

I think I better feel a little more than I can chew.

I can't believe you still have this.

Mr. Pickle?

Yes.

My favorite.

Who knew I'd be so good at ring toss, huh?

Yeah, that was a fun night.

He keeps me company when I'm lonely.

Reminds me of you.

Kind of looks like you too, don't you think?

I mean, well, yeah, I guess you can see a little bit of a resemblance.

Uh, what are you cooking?

Spaghetti.

Wow.

Yeah.

Probably won't be as good as yours, but, you know.

Sorry I didn't properly get to say hello.

I know.

Hi.

It's good to see you.

How have you been?

Good.

Your sauce.

It's on fire.

Oh shit!

Why?

Some things never change, huh?

I'll take this over your cooking any day.

Yeah, you always used to love this place.

So, what did you think?

Just as good as I remember.

No, I meant the book.

It was good.

That's it?

It was really good.

I'm sorry, it's just...

It's kind of weird being back here.

But it was really good.

I think it was really well written.

I love the characters.

I'm really proud of you.

Thank you.

You know, you're the first person to read it besides my publisher.

Well, I'm honored.

And I'm sure it'll be another bestseller for you.

Could you tell I really put a lot of myself in there? Did you?

Yeah, I mean, it's subtle,

but I really dug deep over the last couple of years,

and it's kind of a retrospective of everything I've learned, you know?

You know?

Hm.

What, you don't think so?

No. I'm glad you learned from that experience.

Okay, what?

Something's wrong, I can tell, so just...

I'm just...

I don't know what I'm actually doing here.

What do you mean?

I mean, we've been here before, haven't we?

So I guess I'm just asking myself what's different.

I mean, the cooking, that was new.

You know, the Mr. Pickle,

that was a really good touch.

Look, I'm sure it was weird getting a text from me out of the blue,

but you were a huge influence in this.

I don't know, I just wanted to show you my appreciation.

Alright.

And then what?

You go fuck?

Oh god, why do you have to make this a thing?

You're asking me that?

Oh, come on, I didn't make you come here.

You wanted this just as much as I did.

So I guess I'm the dumbass who actually thought that things would be different.

Shit, I thought two years would be long enough.

You know I have a lot going on.

Yeah, I know that.

And you'll always have a lot going on.

So what's next, huh?

What's your next distraction?

Media circuit?

A book tour?

Movie adaptation?

Yeah.

Look, no, I'm not doing this, Okay?

You have plenty of people praising you in your book.

Why the fuck do you need me?

100

Because you're the only one who'll be honest with me.

101

So why has it always been so hard for you to be honest with me?

102

Okay, this is clearly about her, so...

103

And yes, I'm still smoking.

104

I didn't say anything.

105

You didn't have to, I can feel it.

106

Okay, so what do you wanna know?

107

You were so adamant about,

108

I'm not ready for commitment.

109

And yet there you were, committed.

110

Do you know how many times I've wondered and racked my brain, why not me?

111

I wasn't in the right headspace then, okay?

112

But the pandemic really changed a lot for me.

113

It made me realize what was important. So what happened?

114

She wasn't you.

115

The love, the connection we share.

116

I didn't feel for her what I feel for you.

117

Grace.

118

You ruined me.

119

I'm more than just sex, Joe.

120

I know you're more than sex.

121

When we dated- When we dated?

122

Why does that sound so weird coming from you?

123

What we were doing, that wasn't dating.

124

That was a fucking situationship.

125

Another afterthought when your ego was down.

126

Hey, that's not fair.

127

Oh, it's not fair?

128

You know what's not fair?

129

Letting my walls down.

130

Being completely vulnerable with you.

131

As a writer, you inspired me to write.

132

You encouraged me to really go for my dreams.

133

You made me feel special, Joe.

134

One day he'll love me the way I love him.

135

You know what?

136

I finally just realized it's all been just a fantasy in my mind.

137

I've romanticized the idea of us for so long that I don't even know what's real.

138

You're still the only woman I ever said I love you to.

139

Does that not mean anything?

140

It does.

141

But yet here we are again, in another situation.

142

So tell me, Joe, what is it that you need from me now?

143

I want you back in my life, okay?

144

Look, I know we have a complicated history,

145

but we were friends first.

146

Friends?

147

I can't be friends with you, Joe.

148

I'm madly in love with you.

149

But I'm just never going to be enough for you.

150

Grace.

151

I know I've played my part in this too.

152

So I take full responsibility.

153

But if you really, truly love me,

154

you will let me go.

155

I do love you.

156

I hope you know that.

157

And I love you too.

158

But my love doesn't have walls.

159

Oh, my

160

God.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
