Solve the following math problem efficiently and clearly:

- For simple problems (2 steps or fewer):
Provide a concise solution with minimal explanation.

- For complex problems (3 steps or more):
Use this step-by-step format:

## Step 1: [Concise description]
[Brief explanation and calculations]

## Step 2: [Concise description]
[Brief explanation and calculations]

...

Regardless of the approach, always conclude with:

Therefore, the final answer is: $oxed{answer}$. I hope it is correct.

Where [answer] is just the final number or expression that solves the problem.

Problem: $ABC$ is an equilateral triangle with sides equal to 2cm. $\overline{BC}$ is extended its own length to $D$, and $E$ is the midpoint of $\overline{AB}$. Suppose $\overline{ED}$ meets $\overline{AC}$ at $F$. Find the area of the quadrilateral $BEFC$ in square centimeters.
