English term or phrase: teased through her absorption
Buongiorno, mi servirebbe un aiuto con il verbo "to tease through" in questa frase.

Si tratta di una ragazza che sta correndo in un parco e all'improvviso incrocia un uomo, che poi si rivela essere quello che le piace am con il quale però non ha un rapporto idilliaco.

"Breathing hard, she barely noted the man in street clothes with a gym bag slung over one shoulder. As she came abreast of him, something teased through her absorption, and she turned her head toward him."

Mio tentativo: Respirando a fatica, aveva notato appena un uomo che indossava vestiti comuni con una borsa da palestra su una spalla. Quando l’affiancò, qualcosa penetrò attraverso la sua concentrazione e cominciò a stuzzicarla, quindi si voltò verso di lui.

o anche "si insinuò nei suoi pensieri", se vuoi essere più fedele al "teased"

ops, intendevo dire se vuoi essere più fedele al "through"

neutral  Francesco Badolato: A mio avviso non è un italiano corretto. Casomai "qualcosa interruppe i suoi pensieri".
