Hello everyone!
From The Girl On The Train novel:
" I spent all day in my bedroom, waiting for Cathy to go out so that I could have a drink. She
didn’t. She sat steadfast and unmovable in the living room, (“just catching up on a bit of
admin.”)By late afternoon I couldn’t stand the confinement or the boredom any longer, so I
told her I was going out for a walk."
What the meaning of the red phrase between the brackets?
Thanks a lot!
