How to get a variable from another class in kotlin?

I want to get a variable from an activity and use it in another class. This variable will be filled by an user in a editText that is called editTextSerie

 override fun searchSeries(listener: OnDataListener) {

        val retrofit = Retrofit.Builder().addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())
            .baseUrl("http://api.themoviedb.org/3/")
            .build()

        val client = retrofit.create(MovieDBApiInterface::class.java)

        val objetoClasse1 = SearchActivity()

        var nomeS = objetoClasse1.editTextSerie.text.toString().trim()


        val responseCall = client.searchSeries("API_KEY", "pt-BR", nomeS)

        responseCall.enqueue(object : Callback<AllSeriesResponse> {
            override fun onResponse(call: Call<AllSeriesResponse>?, response1: Response<AllSeriesResponse>?) {
                listener.onSuccess(response1!!.body()!!.results)
            }

            override fun onFailure(call: Call<AllSeriesResponse>?, t: Throwable?) {
                listener.onFailure(t!!.message.toString())
            }
        })
    }

This function "searchSeries" is from the class "Series".

I want to get the "editTextSerie" from another class called "Search Activity", so i created the variable "nomeS" to receive the value of it.

class SearchActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    var botaoSearch: AppCompatImageButton? = null


    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_search)



        botaoSearch = findViewById(R.id.btn_search)

        botaoSearch?.setOnClickListener {


          var nomeSerie = editTextSerie.text.toString().trim()


        }
    }
}

I want to receive this value (value of editTextSerie comes from the XML of SearchActivity ) and use it at responseCall with the "nomeS" variable

What is OnDataListener? Not really sure it is interface or abstract class, so I' ll write some pseudo code.

First change your function searchSeries's params to

searchSeries(text: String, listener: OnDataListener)

So in the class Series, you can get the data in your function searchSeries:

    override fun searchSeries(text: String, listener: OnDataListener) {
    // ... 
    // you can get the "text" string
    }

Then edit your SearActivity's listener:

    class SearchActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

        var botaoSearch: AppCompatImageButton? = null

        // create class "Series"
        val series = Series()

        override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
            setContentView(R.layout.activity_search)

            botaoSearch = findViewById(R.id.btn_search)

            botaoSearch?.setOnClickListener {

                var nomeSeries = editTextSerie.text.toString().trim()
                searchSeries(nomeSeries)
            }
        }

        private fun searchSeries(text: String) {

            series.searchSeries(text, object : OnDataListener {

                override onSuccess(a0: ...) {

                }

                override onFailure(message: String) {

                }
            })

        }
    }

If OnDataListener is a abstract class:

    series.searchSeries(text, object : OnDataListener() {

        override onSuccess(a0: ...) {

        }

        override onFailure(message: String) {

        }
    })
