1
Hi, I'm Janet.
2
When I was 16, I fell in love, and it was magical.
3
But before I continue, please like and subscribe.
4
His name was Carter, and he was a dream come true.
5
Every day I saw him, it was like the sun shined brighter.
6
I miss you, darling.
7
My heart aches when you're not around.
8
I saw you 10 minutes ago, but it feels like an eternity.
9
Babe, you're my world, my inspiration.
10
The air I breathe.
11
Without you, I'm nothing.
12
But with you, I feel like I could do anything.
13
I love you so much.
14
You're so sweet, you make my teeth hurt.
15
You're like cotton candy dipped in chocolate fudge with rainbow sprinkles.
16
Every time Carter held me in his arms, I melted like a popsicle on a hot day.
17
He made me feel like I was the only girl in the world.
18
With him at my side, I was unstoppable.
19
I was at the top of my class in school, I was captain of the debate team and class president, and Carter was my biggest cheerleader.
20
Every time I reached a new goal, he bought me balloons and flowers and we'd waltz down the hallway.
21
Ouch, my foot!
22
Sure, we stepped on a few toes and a few grumpy people couldn't handle our public displays of affection.
23
Jeez!
24
Gotta roam for goodness sake.
25
But we didn't care.
26
Our love was amazing.
27
At home, it was just me and my dad, who was the head accountant at a huge company.
28
He made a ton of money and worked really long hours, but he always made time for me.
29
We played chess, watched movies, and I even cooked his favorite meals.
30
Though one time his face turned green and he spent the rest of the night in the bathroom.
31
Life was perfect, but a year later, everything changed.
32
Dad started having problems with his boss, Mr. Saint.
33
Mr. Saint owned my dad's company, and everyone in town loved him.
34
He was filthy rich and donated a bunch of money to charities, but Dad hated him.
35
I can't stand that man.
36
He's a crook and a thief.
37
If they only knew what he does behind closed doors, he's a rotten criminal and he's bribed the police to look the other way.
38
No way, not Mr. Saint.
39
I've seen it with my own eyes.
40
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention, Carter is Mr. Saint's son.
41
And of course, Dad has no idea that he's my boyfriend.
42
Dad had to be mistaken.
43
Carter was an angel.
44
No way his father could be a criminal.
45
Sure, Mr. Saint was a little stuck up.
46
Pissed me off that he always tried to set
47
Carter up with his rich friend's daughters.
48
One time, Carter was on a date, and I jumped out of the bushes dressed like a zombie.
49
I pretended to bite
50
Carter, and then we chased his date down the block.
51
Another time, I gave
52
Carter a smelly shirt to wear.
53
It stinks so much that his date almost threw up at the table.
54
Carter and I kept our relationship a secret.
55
As far as our dads knew, Carter and I were just friends.
56
Carter once even climbed through my bedroom window.
57
What's that noise?
58
I swear I heard voices.
59
Oh, it was just me.
60
Hey, Janet, how are you doing this evening?
61
I'm fine, thanks for asking.
62
I think I'll go to bed now.
63
Jolly good idea.
64
Good night, Janet.
65
Good night.
66
One day in the 10th grade, I competed for an internship at this huge tech company.
67
We took a bunch of tests and had to give a big speech.
68
My scores were the highest, and my speech got a standing ovation.
69
But they gave it to some rich kid because his dad was friends with the CEO.
70
The whole thing is rigged.
71
That kid flunked the tests, and he slept through his own speech.
72
It isn't fair.
73
It doesn't make any sense.
74
Janet?
75
This is all wrong.
76
The animals are running the zoos.
77
The world has gone mad.
78
All hope is lost.
79
We're doomed.
80
No one can save us.
81
I had a bit of a breakdown.
82
It wasn't my best moment.
83
Carter felt really bad.
84
He tried to cheer me up, but nothing helped.
85
A week later, Carter ran up to me at school with an acceptance letter from the tech company with my name on it.
86
Your internship starts next week.
87
I told my dad what happened, so he pulled some strings.
88
I was over the moon.
89
Carter was the best boyfriend ever.
90
But when I got home from school, my dad was furious.
91
Mr. Saint told my dad
92
he had to help him steal money out of the company
93
to pay for Mr. Saint's new yacht in exchange for helping me get the internship.
94
I can't believe you never told me about your relationship with Carter.
95
And even worse, that you accepted a favor like this.
96
I'm so sorry, Dad.
97
I didn't know.
98
I'll talk to Mr. Saint.
99
I'll tell him I won't accept the internship.
100
It's too late.
101
I already tried that.
102
He'll keep hanging this internship over my head to force me to do more illegal things.
103
I won't do it.
104
I'm quitting tomorrow.
105
We're leaving this place for good.
106
I can't believe this is happening.
107
I'm so disappointed in you, Janet.
108
I thought I taught you better than this.
109
Dad didn't speak to me for the rest of the night, and I felt horrible.
110
I wanted to crawl into a hole.
111
Maybe not a real one.
112
I'm terrified of spiders.
113
But the next day, my world turned upside down.
114
When Dad went back to work to resign from the company, he was arrested and charged with fraud, theft, and embezzlement.
115
The newspaper said he stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from Mr. Sain's company.
116
At the trial, the lawyer had a ton of evidence against him.
117
Guilty.
118
The judge sentenced my dad to 20 years in jail.
119
I didn't do it, honey.
120
Mr. Saint framed me.
121
We have to do something.
122
We can tell the judge or go to the press.
123
It'll only make things worse.
124
Mr. Saint has too many connections.
125
Promise me you won't tell anyone.
126
He'll ruin your life just like...
127
You ruined mine.
128
My blood boiled at the thought of Mr. Saint getting away with it, but I promised my dad I wouldn't say anything.
129
Soon, we lost our house, and I had to go live with my grandmother in a tiny apartment across town.
130
After the trial, Carter came over to visit.
131
I'm so sorry about your dad.
132
He seemed like such a nice guy.
133
I can't believe he was a crook.
134
I was done.
135
I wanted to slap
136
Carter across the face for saying that about my dad.
137
My dad's not a crook.
138
It's your dad that's...
139
I want you to know that I don't care about your dad's crimes,
140
Even if he did try to steal from my dad's company, I forgive him.
141
But most of all, I still love you and I want us to be together.
142
I was about to explode.
143
But before I could say a word, Carter put his finger to my lips.
144
Don't speak.
145
I know this is all a lie, but we'll get through this together.
146
I promise.
147
Our love will triumph over it all.
148
Then he kissed me on my forehead and left.
149
That night, Carter and his dad took their new yacht to some tropical island and he sent me a photo.
150
Seeing Mr. Saint and Carter's stupid smiling faces on that dumb yacht made me so angry I could scream.
151
I called Carter to dump him, but my calls wouldn't go through.
152
Money was tight at my grandma's house,
153
so I decided to get a summer job so I could stay at the private school for my senior year.
154
I applied everywhere, but no one would hire me.
155
They'd say they didn't have openings, but I'd hear them whispering about me behind my back.
156
You can't hire her.
157
Her father's a criminal.
158
He's a thief and a liar.
159
She's probably just like him.
160
I wanted to punch them in the face, but I kept walking.
161
Everywhere I went, people gossiped about my dad.
162
After a while, I learned to ignore them.
163
Eventually, I found a job at an old electronics store near the edge of town.
164
My first day there, I met a boy named Vincent.
165
Vincent was kind of weird at first.
166
I'd catch him staring at me across the aisles.
167
Every time I'd say hi, he'd walk away.
168
And one time, I was walking home from work, and I caught
169
Vincent taking pictures of me with his phone.
170
What's your problem?
171
I had a feeling it was you.
172
Your dad's that crook that worked for Mr. Saint.
173
Vincent showed me a news article on his phone with a horrible picture of me and my dad from the trial.
174
What's the name of the jail he's in?
175
The jail is called Janet Punches Weirdos.
176
Hmm, never heard of it.
177
Weird.
178
Janet Punches...
179
I'd had enough.
180
I punched Vincent and shoved him to the ground.
181
My dad is not a crook.
182
He's innocent.
183
That jerk, Mr. Saint, framed him.
184
It was the first time I said it out loud.
185
Vincent was shocked.
186
Then he said something totally unexpected.
187
Join the club.
188
Vincent told me that Mr. Saint framed his dad for a crime a few years ago.
189
My dad was a reporter.
190
He was investigating Mr. Saint.
191
He spent months working undercover as Mr. Saint's butler.
192
He almost had enough evidence to take him down, but before he could finish his story,
193
Mr. Saint found out and planted stolen money in my dad's office.
194
My dad tried to fight it, but Mr. Saint paid off the judge.
195
Vincent's dad made
196
Vincent promise not to say anything too.
197
I can't keep quiet any longer.
198
Neither can I, but what can we do?
199
We both promised our dads we wouldn't say anything.
200
We can finish your dad's story and publish it anonymously.
201
No one would ever know it was us.
202
Yes, I just got an idea.
203
We can finish my dad's story and publish it anonymously.
204
Yes, I just said that.
205
It was my idea.
206
Nuh -uh, it was my idea.
207
I literally just said it three seconds ago.
208
No, it's my idea.
209
You're making me angry, Janet.
210
Fine, fine, I'm sorry.
211
It's okay, it's not like I'm angry.
212
God, such a weirdo.
213
That night, Vincent invited me to his house.
214
Vincent found his dad's old laptop in the attic, but when he tried to pull up his dad's story,
215
he learned that the computer had been wiped clean.
216
Oh no, it's not here.
217
All the evidence is gone.
218
It's all over.
219
There's nothing we can do.
220
I can go undercover as Carter's girlfriend.
221
I could snoop around his house and find the evidence.
222
You'd do that?
223
Yeah.
224
Vincent stood tall like a soldier and saluted me.
225
What are you doing?
226
It's just, you're my hero.
227
You're so brave and selfless.
228
I heard that
229
Carter is the worst.
230
He's a spoiled jerk.
231
His voice sounds like nails on a chalkboard, and his brain's the size of a peanut.
232
It's gonna be torture to pretend to be his girlfriend.
233
I didn't tell
234
Vincent about me and Carter.
235
Carter returned to town a week later, and I invited myself to his house.
236
Every time I looked at Carter's face, I thought about Mr. Saint and what he did to my dad.
237
Carter tried to kiss me, and I almost gagged.
238
Are you okay?
239
I must be coming down with something.
240
Do you mind getting me some tea and maybe some soup?
241
When Carter left the room, I snuck into his dad's study and snooped around.
242
I took pictures of a bunch of secret papers and files and planted a recording device.
243
Just as I was about to leave, I ran into Carter and Mr. Saint.
244
What is she doing here?
245
Oh, Mr. Saint, I'm so glad I found you.
246
You saved my life.
247
You're such a good man for exposing my dad and all the horrible things he did.
248
How can I ever repay you?
249
I know, I'll clean your study.
250
I snatched a napkin from Carter and started cleaning.
251
I knocked over an expensive vase, spilled water on the floor, and tossed a bunch of important papers in the trash.
252
She's so grateful, Dad.
253
Isn't she the best?
254
I spent weeks at Carter's house, sending him on crazy errands so I could snoop around.
255
Then, I'd rush over to Vincent's to show him what I'd found.
256
We spent hours combing through the evidence.
257
It was strange spending so much time with Vincent.
258
He and Carter were so different.
259
Vincent wasn't rich, but he was really smart, and his determination was contagious.
260
Vincent and I wrote a bunch of articles.. that we posted online under a fake name, and before we knew it,
261
the stories went viral, and the police showed up at Mr. Saint's door.
262
We did it.
263
I can't believe it.
264
He's finally going down.
265
Vincent pulled me into his arms, and my heart skipped a beat.
266
What are you doing?
267
I'm not sure.
268
Then Vincent kissed me, and it was magical, but I was so confused.
269
Vincent wasn't even my type.
270
Suddenly, my cell phone rang, and I pulled away.
271
It was Carter, and he wanted to see me.
272
I should go to, uh, get more evidence.
273
Good idea.
274
I raced out of there to Carter's house.
275
I found him sitting on the porch looking really sad.
276
I'm scared, Janet.
277
They just arrested my dad.
278
He might go to jail and we'll lose everything.
279
All our money, our houses, and our maids.
280
I don't know what I'll do.
281
I don't know how to be poor.
282
I don't even know how to use the toaster.
283
What if I need toast, Janet?
284
How can I eat a sandwich without any toast?
285
Carter cried in my arms and suddenly I felt really guilty.
286
Memories of our love came rushing back to me.
287
I hated seeing him like this.
288
We went to his room to watch MSA videos to cheer him up.
289
Carter drifted off to sleep.
290
Then, I saw Mr. Saint in his study paying off the judge.
291
Drop the charges, and there's more where that came from.
292
I raced over to Vincent's, but when I got there, a bunch of strange men were searching his house.
293
Then out of nowhere, someone pulls me into the bushes.
294
They're after me.
295
Mr. Saint found out I posted the articles from my computer.
296
They're destroying all our evidence.
297
Tell me you found something.
298
I told Vincent about Mr. Saint and the judge.
299
I know that prune -faced man.
300
He's the judge that put my father away.
301
Mine too!
302
We have to publish another article.
303
This is the proof we need to get our dads out of prison.
304
It's too dangerous.
305
Danger is my middle name.
306
Your middle name is Simon.
307
Yes, that's my second middle name.
308
But the third one is Danger.
309
And the fourth one is Triangle.
310
And, ah, forget it.
311
Just text me the video and I'll finish this.
312
I have to protect you.
313
You're a delicate flower.
314
I'm stronger than you are.
315
You know what I mean.
316
I texted Vincent the video.
317
Then he kissed me and ran off.
318
My heart raced as he disappeared into the darkness.
319
But when I got home, something unexpected happened.
320
I walked into my room and saw
321
Carter standing there with a huge smile on his face.
322
It's over.
323
What's over?
324
My dad caught the guy that's been writing all those lies about him.
325
He'll go to jail just like his lying father.
326
Carter turned on the TV.
327
Vincent's face popped up on the screen.
328
He'd been arrested.
329
My heart sank.
330
Then Carter got down on one knee.
331
Will you marry me, Janet?
332
You're my rock and my sunshine.
333
I couldn't have gotten through this without you.
334
Our love saved me.
335
I didn't know what to say.
336
At one time, I dreamed of marrying
337
Carter, but the thought of Vincent rotting in jail made me sick to my stomach.
338
I ran out of there and straight to the police station.
339
I showed them my secret recordings and all the other evidence I'd saved on my phone.
340
The police released
341
Vincent, but when they went to go arrest Mr. Saint, he was gone.
342
He'd left town without a trace.
343
A couple weeks later, my dad and Vincent's dad were finally back home.
344
It broke Carter's heart to learn the truth about his dad.
345
I tried to reach out to him, but he refused to take my calls.
346
I heard he and his mother moved away to a farm where
347
Carter learned to make bread.
348
As for Vincent and I, we fell in love.
349
We studied journalism in college, and after we graduated, we became investigative journalists.
350
We make a great team.
351
You're an excellent sidekick.
352
I'm not a sidekick.
353
You're the sidekick.
354
You're standing by my side, and when we first met, you kicked me.
355
Actually, I shoved you and punched you in the face.
356
Details, details.

Pronúncia para ficar de olho
O falante usa 93 contrações e formas reduzidas, como I'm, you're, can't. Diga-as na forma curta, do jeito que você ouve.
- Os sons de “th”: thief /ˈθiːf/, breathe /bɹiːð/, grandmother /ˈɡɹæn(d)ˌmʌðɚ/, theft /θɛft/, filthy /ˈfɪlθi/
- Os sons de “sh” e “zh”: internship /ˈɪntɜːnʃɪp/, publish /ˈpʌblɪʃ/, rush /ɹʌʃ/, shove /ʃʌv/, shock /ʃɔk/
- Palavras longas — acerte a sílaba tônica: unexpected /ʌnɪkˈspɛktɪd/, undercover /ˌʌndə(ɹ)ˈkʌvə(ɹ)/, disappointed /ˌdɪsəˈpɔɪnɪd/, inspiration /ˌɪn.spɪˈɹeɪ.ʃən/, investigate /ɪnˈvɛs.tə.ɡeɪt/
Sons difíceis para falantes de português:
- Consoante final — sem acrescentar um “i” depois: internship /ˈɪntɜːnʃɪp/, yacht /jɑt/, pretend /pɹəˈtɛnd/, unexpected /ʌnɪkˈspɛktɪd/, toast /toʊst/
- /l/ final — a língua toca o céu da boca, não vira “u”: steal /stiːl/, horrible /ˈhɔɹ.ɪ.bəl/, magical /ˈmæd͡ʒ.ɪ.kəl/, meal /ˈmiːl/, angel /ˈeɪ̯n.d͡ʒəl/
- /h/ — um sopro suave, diferente do “r”: horrible /ˈhɔɹ.ɪ.bəl/, hire /ˈhaɪɹ/, nowhere /ˈnoʊ.(h)wɛɹ/, honey /ˈhʌni/, forehead /ˈfɔɹ.hɛd/

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
