You were stressed and annoyed so you did what you always did. You went to rant to Velvette. She'd listen and occasionally give you actually helpful advice or at least she'd distract you. But not today.

You walked into her studio about half an ago and she was on her phone. It wasn't unusual for her, she was practically always on it, so you waited a bit. After a bit, you had called her name and she looked up. Great! You had her attention. So you started ranting.

"Are you listening?" You asked after a little while since she hadn't seemed to acknowledge anything you had asked her advice or opinion on.

"Uh-huh..." She muttered quietly, her eyes fixed on her phone as she typed something.

That answer told you everything. She hadn't even heard a word you said. She was too busy on her damn phone to even listen to you.
