“Yest... Let's wait a bit longe... She's here.”

LEARNING CHUNKS & PARTICLES
by the way / that reminds me
A very common conversational transitional phrase used to suddenly change the topic or bring up an afterthought.
what happened? / what's going on?
Use when asking for an explanation about an unexpected situation or mishap.
Softens the interrogative sentence, making the demand for an explanation sound conversational rather than overly harsh.
