Yeah I agree with the other comments.
Just F.Y.I: It's worth checking the depth of the lines when reading manga. See how these lines blend with those of the character's other features? (esp. on the neck area) Therefore they're just part of the line art.

If lines are highlighted and more shapely or thicker/darker in terms of lineart/outline, then they are characters or kanji, normally. (Compare what you highlighted to the outlined characters in front). Each artist has their own style of course, but hey I get it, when you're new it's a little confusing at times.

I hope this helps, enjoy your reading!

Sorry for the late reply!

I'm not actually sure on that one, it would probably be easier to figure out with context. I'm guessing they're holding a hand-held vacuum cleaner of some sort and they're probably cleaning dust from either the AC on the wall or maybe a rug??? I'm not sure though, sorry!
