At first the woman does not see the boy, but when she sees him she has an irritated reaction because he is taking time away from her pleasure instead of doing his job. As he observes this woman with her friends, he notices that her conversation is flirtatious, just like the conversation between the boyfriend and his girlfriend when she asks him if he is going to the bazaar and as she asks him "...did she turn over a bracelet of 'silver and around the wrist” (2280). It is very common for girls to play with their hair, clothes or a piece of jewelry when flirting with a boy because it is a playful way.
