Thalassa was down in the dumps and restless, unable to accompany her friend Hertha in her pursuit of her Prince Charming.
"Just go by yourself, Hertha. Good luck," she muttered, opening the door to their shared apartment.
Hertha, trailing after her, asked curiously, "What's up, Thalassa? Did something happen?"
Hertha and Thalassa were best friends. They knew each other inside out.
Hertha noted Thalassa's unusual pallor. She'd been so immersed in her own world that she'd failed to check in on her friend. Now, seeing Thalassa so disinterested in even going out, she realized something was amiss.
Thalassa plopped onto the couch, her eyes darting around aimlessly, lost as to where to start.
Taking a seat beside her, Hertha glanced around the room, asking, "Where's Evelyn? Did she head back to Hollowbrook?"
Mention of Evelyn sent Thalassa spiraling further into despair, her eyes welling with tears.
"Oh my, Thalassa darling, what happened? Don't cry. Tell me what's wrong, and we'll sort it out together," Hertha comforted, pulling her into a tight hug when she noticed Thalassa's tear-stained face.
"What happened? The kids are with Lysander, right? He said you could visit them anytime. Evelyn too. We need to stay positive for them to grow up healthy and happy," Hertha soothed, patting Thalassa's back.
She thought Thalassa was still upset about Lysander taking the kids.
Thalassa collected herself, breaking away from the hug to wipe her tears. "My mom's been arrested. The Sinclair family wants her in prison."
She knew Robert had been lying, but she didn't know how to help Evelyn. That was what made her feel so helpless.
