Lay startled when Baekhyun approached him in sudden, squatted down beside his chair. "Baekhyun, what're you doing here in office? You should be at home." He half shouted in whispering mode.

"Hyung, hyung. Please tell me." Baekhyun clasped his own hands, begged like a kid.

"Tell you what?" Lay quirked his eyebrows, focus still on the bunch of papers at his table.

"The day Chanyeol came and passed the id card to you. Remember? Did he said anything to you?"

Lay took a short pause before asked back. "Like what?"

"Uhm.. like.. maybe he looked sad and-- or maybe he said he was so done with me? Ah-- uhm-- m--maybe he said he--"

"Idk but he saw everything, Baekhyun." Lay cut the younger male's words.

"E--e--everything? W--what?"

"You and Mr. Lee hugged and.. omfg, Baekhyun. You stood in between his legs and you touched his hair! If I'm Chanyeol, I'll feel so broken and mad and sad and disappointed and irritated and--"

Baekhyun had to cut the non-stop words and block Lay's mouth using a hand. "A--arasseo, arasseo. Hyung.." He slightly whined. "We're fighting now. What should I do?"

Lay sighed and shrugged. "I know this gonna happen. You hv to be more careful, Baekhyun. What else can you do now? Say sorry and try to explain things."

Baekhyun looked down and heavily sighed. "Ara."

Chanyeol was not at home when Baekhyun came back. The fight earlier sounded serious and worse.

Ah... I shouldn't kick his ass this morning. Poor Chanyeol. Baekhyun felt guilty now.

He sat on a couch, turned on the tv. But his mind keep thinking of Aeri. After this, he would get new personal patient and yet, Aeri would still became his favorite one. Always.

Half hour later, he lay down and dozed off on that couch. So tired.

"Omg! Omg.. w--what's wrong, Byunghun ssi?" Chanyeol was surprised to see the bruised face male when he met Chanyeol at the cafe.

{Flashback }

Chanyeol was watching tv when suddenly his phone rang.

"Hello--"

"C--Chanyeol, can we meet now? Please."

"Byunghun? I-- I can't--"

"Please, Chanyeol. I really need someone to hear me. Pleasee.."

"Oh dammit. Why're you crying? Ok, tell me the place."

"Cafe near your house. The red coffee house. Please. I'll be waiting there."

{End Flashback}

"Is this.. because Eric again?"

Chanyeol knew well. Who else? Eric; the new boyfriend. Byunghun slowly nodded, admitted it.

"Now what? He slapped you?"
