1
When the music kicked off and everyone started dancing, I escaped to the garden for some fresh air.
2
As I sat down by the fountain and sighed, a soft object hit me squarely in the face.
3
Then someone in black jumped down from the tree above me.
4
Brought your favorite cheeseburger.
5
Meredith, what are you doing here?
6
And why would you hit me with a burger?
7
Wait, are you dressed up like Catwoman?
8
Yeah, it's been my look for weeks now.
9
One, it shows off my fantastic figure, which is a service to humanity.
10
Two, every vigilante hero needs a costume.
11
and I've always found Catwoman classy.
12
Three, vigilante hero?
13
You basically raw people.
14
Uh, yeah, like Robin Hood, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.
15
You steal for yourself.
16
I am the poor.
17
And what's all this you-you nonsense?
18
Last time I checked, we were a team.
19
But sis, what's taking so long with this mission?
20
It's not that simple.
21
It's pretty simple.
22
You make this rich dude fall for you, get access to his vault, steal the painting, and we run off to Bora Bora.
23
Are you having trouble making him fall for you?
24
Maybe he hates your eyebrows.
25
I don't know, but I feel like punching you in the face every time I see your eyebrows, which is basically every time I see your face.
26
Shut up, Em.
27
Everything's going fine.
28
OK, but hurry up.
29
This cat suit is giving me a butt rash, even though I use baby powder under it.
30
I want to put it away soon and retire on a beach in a bikini.
31
Aren't you looking forward to it?
32
Just take the stupid suit off.
33
You're a con artist, not a cat burglar.
34
And of course I'm looking forward to it.
35
You should go before you blow my cover.
36
And thanks for the burger.
37
It's not a gift.
38
Duh, you're gonna pay me back.
39
I've noted it in my diary.
40
See ya.
41
I couldn't help laughing as I saw her clumsily climb the wall, then fall over to the other side.
42
But as I turned away, I felt troubled.
43
The problem wasn't about making this rich guy I had to rob fall for me.
44
He already had.
45
The problem was, I'd fallen for him too.
46
Let's start from the start, okay?
47
Hi, I'm Claire, originally from Connecticut.
48
And yes, you might have heard some fun words being used for me.
49
Deceitful witch, manipulative liar, and con artist might come up.
50
None of which is an exaggeration.
51
But people change, okay?
52
Before I tell you my crazy story, please like and subscribe.
53
My mother was born into what she always called old money, which basically means her family had been rich for a long time and their wealth was passed down generations.
54
Unfortunately, it skipped our generation.
55
Apparently, my dad was extremely charming and swept mom off her feet when she was just 20.
56
She married him against her parents' wishes, and they cut her off from their wealth.
57
Then, two years later, Mom gave birth to twins, Dad met another woman, and he abandoned us.
58
At least he left us the house in a nice neighborhood.
59
But my grandparents refused to help Mom out and said she had to live with her decisions.
60
Mom, how are you feeling now?
61
Like my organs are shutting down one by one.
62
So same as this morning, then.
63
Here's some chicken soup.
64
There's no chicken in it.
65
Well, you asked for chicken soup when there was no chickens in the fridge.
66
So I guess we all have to use our imaginations, don't we?
67
Oh, the soup at my parents' house always had chunks of chicken and big fat prawns.
68
What has life come to now?
69
I was raised as a creature of luxury.
70
I'm like that fairy-tale princess who couldn't sleep because of a single pea under her mattress.
71
So you say.
72
But there's a bunch of sharp pebbles under your mattress, and you sleep like a log and snore like a bear.
73
What?
74
How could you put pebbles?
75
I do not snore.
76
Leave me to decompose, please.
77
Well, you have to return to your waitressing job, so get well soon, Mom.
78
Shall not.
79
I loved Mom, but she was basically a spoiled, selfish child who just couldn't adapt to her change in fortunes and start acting like a freaking parent.
80
My sister Meredith and I were twins, but we looked nothing alike.
81
With her soft blonde hair and big baby blues, she looked like the kind of sweet soul who saved kittens from trees, helped old people across the road, and sang to birds.
82
She didn't look like she had an ounce of evil in her, which wasn't true, like at all.
83
But we'll come back to that later.
84
From an early age, it was clear to me and Meredith that we had to be resourceful for money.
85
I started doing odd jobs for our rich neighbors in the eighth grade, like breaking their gardens, walking their dogs, and babysitting their kids.
86
But Meredith was always finding more creative ways, like taking stupid boys in her class on paid exclusive tours to an alien site she'd discovered in the nearby forest.
87
I'd seen her digging up the crater where the spaceship had landed, or selling youth water to high school girls, claiming she'd traveled far to the Fountain of Youth over summer break and had a limited supply.
88
They actually thought she was telling the truth because it tasted different.
89
Yeah, that's because she was filling up bottles from the neighbor's gross jacuzzi.
90
People eventually caught on and stopped buying from her.
91
And that's when she started stealing from me.
92
But whenever I'd confront her, she'd throw a tantrum and deny it like I'd accused her of killing someone.
93
So the next time, I hid money in my diary and made my latest entry, Dear Diary.
94
Guess what?
95
What?
96
When mom took Meredith to the hospital for her sore throat the other day, the doctors made a shocking discovery.
97
Meredith has a rare, incurable disease.
98
She only has a few more months with us.
99
We've decided not to tell her so she isn't scared and lives the rest of her short life in peace.
100
Yes, I'm sad, but not that much, because my baby sister is going to a better place and leaving me all her stuff.
101
I knew my trick had worked when Meredith came down one morning with swollen eyes.
102
When mom asked her what was wrong, she burst into tears about her incurable disease.
103
Where would you get an idea like that?
104
Yes, Meredith.
105
Please tell mom where you got this idea from.
106
You wrote it in your...
107
Wait, you chubby witch!
108
You made me believe I was dying!
109
Meredith lunged at me, and we went rolling all over the kitchen floor.
110
But she ended up getting grounded for a month for stealing and invading my privacy.
111
I soon started missing her at dinner time, though.
112
So late one night, I snuck into her room with ice cream to find her playing darts with my face as the target.
113
I'm sorry you're stuck here, but you did steal from me.
114
I know we don't have a lot right now, but we'll work hard and make money in the future.
115
But the future is in the future.
116
What do I do now when I need money for mascara and gummy bears?
117
Maybe we can think of some business idea.
118
Oh, I thought you'd never ask.
119
She pulled out a box from under her bed full of t-shirts.
120
So you know my friend George, the next-door gardener's nephew?
121
Apparently he volunteers at a mental institution every weekend.
122
The owners got t-shirts made from all the patients, but they refused to wear them, blah, blah.
123
So now the mental place has hundreds of these lying in storage.
124
George said he can score them for me, and we could have our own t-shirt range with cute things written on them.
125
Look, here's one I made for myself.
126
I wanna go to Bora Bora, but I'm Bora Bora.
127
Please help me.
128
Funny.
129
I'm very serious, actually.
130
I'm gonna live in Bora Bora one day.
131
So, are we selling these t-shirts?
132
I'm in.
133
I also made one for you.
134
That'll be $10, thanks.
135
Money can't buy happiness, but poverty can't buy anything.
136
Please help me.
137
Uh, you should pay me for wearing this.
138
Meredith didn't have the best reputation in our neighborhood or school to sell things, so we decided to hit the other end of town and set up a t-shirt stall outside a private school.
139
With my salesmanship and Meredith's flirting, we managed to sell quite a few on the first day.
140
We started setting up shop at different locations, and one day as we were heading home, Meredith suddenly said she had to pee really badly, so we walked up to the closest house to ask if they'd let us use the bathroom.
141
We rang the bell, but no one seemed to be home.
142
I was peeking in through the window when suddenly I turned around to see Meredith already crawling halfway through one.
143
Are you crazy?
144
That's breaking and entering!
145
I'll kick in your face so hard that you'll need plastic surgery, which we don't have money for.
146
If you don't want to be ugly for the rest of your life, let me pee!
147
I let her go and was standing guard at the door when, to my horror, a car suddenly pulled into the driveway and a snooty woman stepped out.
148
Hey, you girl, what are you doing lurking around my house?
149
Were you thinking of breaking in?
150
What?
151
No, of course not.
152
I, um, I'm a Girl Scout selling cookies.
153
Yeah, I study in the, uh, Aston Bridge School for Girls.
154
Oh, I see.
155
It's a lovely school.
156
I know many people whose children go there.
157
Sorry for my mistake.
158
I'll be happy to buy some cookies from you.
159
Put me down for 20 boxes.
160
Sure, sure, sure.
161
It's, um, $5 a box.
162
So that'll be $100.
163
I'm putting your name down on my list, and I'll drop them by tomorrow.
164
That's perfect, sweetie.
165
Here's the money.
166
I'll see you soon.
167
Just then, I saw Meredith slip out the window, and as soon as the lady went in, we ran like crazy down the block and then collapsed on some grass.
168
Look, I took some pastries from her kitchen.
169
Perfect for a spontaneous picnic.
170
That's stealing.
171
Oh, you're one to talk.
172
I heard the whole cookie conversation from inside.
173
You took that lady's money and you're never gonna give her any cookies.
174
I was just trying to distract her before she caught your butt.
175
I didn't think she'd be dumb enough to actually give me the money.
176
I can return it.
177
Look, she didn't do it out of the goodness of her heart.
178
She's a rich snob who was being really rude till she thought you were someone rich too.
179
You didn't force her to give you money at gunpoint.
180
Oh, Claire, this has just given me the best idea.
181
You're not serious.
182
Yes, I am.
183
Dumb people deserve to be tricked.
184
And what does $100 mean to someone who has a gold toilet seat?
185
I knew it was wrong, but it was also so easy.
186
And before I knew it, Meredith and I were wearing private school uniforms and hitting different neighborhoods collecting money for Girl Scout cookies that we had no intention to deliver.
187
We made $2,000 in a month.
188
But one day, when we went up to a rich old lady's house, she invited us in and even offered us cake as we signed her up.
189
How many boxes will that be, ma'am?
190
Oh, none, thank you.
191
You see, I don't buy imaginary cookies.
192
Uh, what?
193
I'd heard that there were two conning Girl Scouts in town, and I was ready for you.
194
I've called the police, and you two will end up in a detention center.
195
Just then, there was a loud bang, and the power went out.
196
In the confusion, Meredith kicked the old lady and yelled, Run!
197
As we were sprinting down the street, I suddenly noticed a nerdy-looking boy my age running beside us too, grinning and waving at us.
198
Hey, hold on.
199
Who are you?
200
I'm your new neighbor, Freddy.
201
I'm the one who saved you from that old crow.
202
What?
203
I'm so confused right now.
204
New neighbor?
205
You moved into the house next to ours?
206
Why are you here?
207
I was bored and saw you girls leaving your house, so I followed you for fun.
208
Don't worry.
209
I won't tell anyone about your little cookie secret.
210
When I heard that old lady threatening you, I went to the main circuit board and pulled out a wire with my tweezer.
211
which I always keep handy.
212
You could have been electrocuted.
213
You're either incredibly smart or exceptionally dumb.
214
My mom says the exact same thing, except for the incredibly smart part.
215
Listen, you geek, what do you want?
216
If you think you're going to get a cut of our profits.
217
No, no, my parents are well off.
218
They're neurosurgeons.
219
I just want to be friends.
220
I swear, I don't have any siblings, and I don't know anyone here.
221
What if we say no?
222
I'll keep following you around until you say yes.
223
Okay, fine.
224
Congratulations.
225
You got yourself two friends.
226
Oh, I'm so happy.
227
Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
228
And from that day on, that goof really did become our best friend, especially mine.
229
He was like the sibling I never had.
230
I mean, the nice sibling who did my nails and watched the channel I wanted to watch on TV without arguing.
231
He was also really generous.
232
I didn't want to take advantage of it, but Meredith and Mom had no problem keeping all the gifts he was always getting us.
233
We decided to lay low with our conning activities, in case the old lady had actually told the police about us.
234
But soon after we joined the 11th grade, a new drama unfolded in our lives.
235
A family moved into the huge white house across the street.
236
Apparently, the couple who'd bought the place was loaded, and they had five teenage boys.
237
Finally, some eligible bachelors on our street.
238
Thanks.
239
My feelings aren't hurt at all.
240
Oh, I'm sorry I left you out, sweetie.
241
Maybe you'll find someone, too.
242
I mean, they have five boys.
243
There's a good chance one of them is gay.
244
What?
245
Why would you think?
246
OK, girls, here's a basket of goodies for you to take over as a welcome present.
247
Now go, throw yourselves at those boys.
248
Meredith and I rolled our eyes, but we decided there wasn't any harm in checking them out.
249
And we were welcomed by the ugliest quadruplets ever.
250
They were really sweet and really excited to see us, but with their orange hair, acne, and buck teeth, they were not a pretty sight.
251
Man, I feel sorry for those parents.
252
Like, you know, Mom got one average-looking kid, but God made it up by giving her me.
253
But those parents?
254
Ugh, God decided to use copy-paste on that ugly model.
255
They must have done something terrible to deserve this.
256
You are so rude.
257
Oh, shut up.
258
I know you're thinking the same.
259
I just have the guts to say it out loud.
260
But then a day later, I'd just woken up when the bell rang, and I opened the door to find the most gorgeous boy ever standing outside.
261
you

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
