Effie called her back almost immediately.

As soon as the call connected, Nita's anxious voice came through. "Effie, are you okay? Why didn't you answer earlier? Where are you?"-

"I'm fine, don't worry. I'm at home," Effie replied, trying to sound as casual as possible.

"That's a relief. By the way, is everything alright between you and Mitchell? He just called me, sounding completely frantic, saying he couldn't find you." Nita's tone was laced with suspicion.

Effie hesitated for a moment, then decided there was no point hiding the truth- Nita would find out sooner or later anyway. "Um... I need to tell you something, but you have to promise not to freak out."

There was a beat of silence on Nita's end, and then she replied, a hint of dread in her voice, "Okay, shoot. What happened?"

anymore. Oh, and he's with Suzan now." Effie said it calmly, finally able to face the situation without flinching.
