Mitch frowned a tad at Mithias' sudden speech. Leave it to him to ruin a good time, even if there was truth to it. Still, he had wanted a bit of leisure time before they had to get into anything heavy. 
Sighing, a sound that was half-groan, he sat up from his comfortable position, glancing around at the newborns with a more serious, but kind look. "I won't lie and say his words aren't true, but-"

Just then, Evelyn burst in, face contorted and hands twisting her skirts. Not only was the interruption shocking, but from her, the rudeness alone was cause enough for worry, let alone her words. 
Mitch bolted up, crossing the room in a few long strides to Evelyn's side, bending to her eye level and grabbing her shoulders. "What do you mean she's [i]gone?[/i]" He demanded, voice not angry, but worried, "Are you sure she didn't just leave for some air? Some seclusion? That sounds like her, doesn't it?" His eyes searched Evelyn's, then glanced to the room. He must be jumping to conclusions. Viorica had always been a strong-willed woman, it wouldn't be so unexpected for her to leave without notice, would it?
