After ending the call, Mrs. Astir threw her cell phone into her purse and stood up from the chair. Obviously, something was going on at her workplace that required her to resolve.
"Let's discuss this later. I have to rush to my office now," Mrs. Astir said, and then turned to Basil Jaak, "Basil, would you like to go with me?"
Basil could not wait to get away from Yetta. Without hesitation, he nodded and said, "Sure, Mrs. Astir."
"Yetta, tidy up this place before going to work. Look at your dorm, it's as messy as a dog's house. Can't believe you're a grown woman. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by Basil?" After a long scolding, Mrs. Astir finally left Yetta's dormitory with Basil.
Once they were outside, Mrs. Astir asked Basil, "Are you really Yetta's boyfriend?"
"Yes!" Basil reluctantly admitted.
"It doesn't seem like it!" Mrs. Astir suddenly said.
Basil forced a bitter smile and said, "Perhaps because Yetta is quite reserved, unlike other girls."
