When Chanyeol entered the dorm room fuming, Baekhyun already knew that a fight was coming. He also knew that his anger at him had everything to do with what happened with Guti. Almost all the other members, and even the girlfriends, had been to his room, shaming him for what he did to Narda. They had all taken her side. So far, Nari's scolding was the harshest if he had to rank them, and it was also the one that worst made him feel about himself. Her words had a way to stick, and echo in the back of his mind, making him soak in his guilt.

"You should be ashamed of yourself, Baekhyun oppa. All Guti does now is go to work, and then when she comes home she locks herself in her room all day. She won't talk to me, she won't talk to anyone. She was put on probation at her job because you got her arrested for stealing your wallet. I hear her crying in the middle of the night when she thinks I'm already asleep. And what's worse is your fans have started harassing her. The other day I saw them throwing anything they could find at her. If you didn't like her, you could have just said so, instead of playing with her feelings and throwing her away like that. That girl is broken, and its all your fault." Her small hand was balled up into a clenched fist, and if Baekhyun didn't know any better, he would have been convinced that she was going to take a swing at him. He would have even welcomed it, though he knew no amount of regret or physical pain of his own would make the situation better. But she didn't hit him. Instead that profound glare managed to shame him beyond anything he had ever felt.

Florencia had been there, asking him why he hated Guti so much. "She's one of the nicest people out there. How could you do this to her?" The foreign model had been even more direct with him. Confessing with honesty, and no regret. "If you weren't Sehunnie's friend, I would have taken a swing at you by now. This is consideration for him and Guti, not you." On her way out of the room, she purposefully knocked over a rack of hats that was by the door. It belonged to Chanyeol, and not Baekhyun, but he didn't tell her that, and the intention was still there. Everyone was angry at him.

His other group mates were all the same, disappointed in him. But when Chanyeol found out, he was in a rage. He stomped over to Baekhyun who was laid down on his bed, gaze fixed on the ceiling. He grabbed him by the material of his shirt and immediately shot his fist out, bringing it into contact with Baekhyun's face. Baekhyun instantly felt the sting of a busted lip and the taste of crimson blood in his mouth.

He looked up at his group mate with a glare, wiping away the blood with the back of his hand. "What the fuck is wrong with you?"

"Me?" Chanyeol scoffed, all his anger directed at Baekhyun. "What is wrong with you? She loved you--she had you on a fucking pedestal--and all you did was screw her over."

"I wasn't trying to hurt her. Believe me, that was the last thing I wanted." Baekhyun defended himself. "I was just trying to protect her from Taeyeon and her threats, but the more I tried to help, the worse it got. Now Guti surely hates me so you can fucking swoop in and rescue her just like you wanted. I bet that makes you happy, doesn't it?" He accused, shooting his friend a glare with the same amount of resentment that Chanyeol had towards him.

Chanyeol shook his head. "Of course I'm not happy. Why would her pain bring me any happiness? I haven't seen her in days and she won't talk to any of us. You're the one who seemed to enjoy messing with her since you didn't stop until you broke her."

"I miss her too." Baekhyun insisted, his anger subsiding to make way for his heartache. "I was only trying to help her. Obviously that didn't turn out the way I hoped."

Chanyeol shot him a surprised look. "You expected her to be all happy and forgiving--sunshine and fucking rainbows--when you treated her like crap and used her as a booty call? Baek, you got her arrested--"

"No. I knew she would be upset." Baekhyun gave a quick shake of his head. "I just hoped she would understand why I did it once I explained it to her. But now I doubt she'll want to listen to me."

"The fans have been harassing her." Chanyeol informed him.

Baekhyun heaved a sigh. "I know. Nari-yah mentioned it when she was yelling at me, saying that I'm the nastiest piece of swine there ever was."

"Fix it." Chanyeol demanded through gritted teeth. But his words sounded more like a threat.

Without another word, he left the room, slamming the door on his way out.

Oriana had been trying to contact Narda for days. She read the gossip articles where there was news of an EXO sasaeng getting arrested for breaking into the SM dorms and attempting to steal Baekhyun's wallet. The follow up articles talked about how the charges had been dropped, but that Baekhyun had gotten a restraining order put in place. Oriana saw the pictures of Narda, teary eyed and heart broken as she was led out of the SM dorms by police officers.

She knew Narda well and she knew her friend was innocent. But when she tried to call her, for days there was no answer. Worried, she had contacted Narda's siblings Aldair and Bianey, asking if they had heard from her.

They hadn't, and when Oriana told them what happened, all three of them were calling Narda non stop. Her brother had even been close to asking for a week's worth of his sick days to go look for her in Korea. Oriana assured him that wasn't necessary, and that she would find out what was happening with his sister. Her words did enough to reassure him, since she was Narda's best friend and he trusted her. But he still couldn't help but worry for Narda.

Narda finally decided to answer the calls from back home, knowing that they would worry for her if she didn't do so. Taking in a deep breath to steel herself, she picked her phone up and answered the incoming call from Oriana. "Hey Oriana," She tried to force a cheerful tone to her voice. "How's everything back home? Has Alda talked to you? He told me he was going to ask you something the last time he and I talked." She tried to keep the topic light, in case Oriana was just calling to chat and not because she found out what happened to her with Baekhyun.

Confused for a moment, Oriana replied, "No. Alda never asked me anything in particular. But I heard you got arrested, and I worried, so I told your siblings--"

"You told my siblings?" Narda gasped. "Do my parents know?"

"I don't think so." Oriana said. She quickly added, "Alda said he wanted to take some days off from football practice to go see you in Korea."

Narda felt her stomach drop. "Don't let him do that. If he finds out I got arrested because of Byun, Alda would kill him."

"So its true?" Oriana asked. Her tone was quickly darkened with anger. She was a fan of EXO, but she knew she wouldn't think twice to throw them under the bus for Narda. Especially when Baekhyun was the one at fault. "Why are you still protecting him when he did something like that to you? I should tell Alda right now so we can both go over there and slap the voice out of Byun Baekhyun."

"Don't." Narda practically begged. She deeply resented Baekhyun, and she herself didn't understand why she was being so quick to jump to his defense. When she found a good enough reason, she explained to Oriana, "Violence doesn't solve anything. Plus, do you want Alda to get arrested for fighting Byun? It would ruin his football career. My brother has enough on his plate as it is. I don't want him worrying about me. I should take care of him, I'm the older sibling."

"Ay Narda..." Oriana heaved a sigh. "So what are you gonna do?"

"I still have another year of teaching in Korea." Narda replied bitterly, thinking back to when Baekhyun asked her to renew her contract. Had she not listened to him, she would have been long gone from Korea now, back to the safety of her home. "I'm just gonna get through it as quick as I can, and disconnect myself from everyone and everything that reminds me of him. Then I'll return home where I won't have to see Byun Baekhyun ever again. I can't wait to get out of here."

With her decision came the next step. She cut all ties with the people who were mutual friends of hers and Baekhyun's, to avoid running into him because of her restraining order. She unfollowed them all on social media and in her resentment she blocked Baekhyun. The only ones she kept in contact with were Florencia and Acacia, since Narda had already committed to helping with the Free Smiles club and she didn't want to go back on her word.

From them, Narda heard that everyone missed her and that they all knew none of it was her fault. The two girls were quick to notice how her smiles were forced now, her eyes were dull and full of sadness, and she was much quieter now, soft spoken even. That wasn't the Narda they knew. Florencia had also informed her that things were hostile in the dorms, espscially between Chanyeol and Baekhyun. The same day he found out what Baekhyun did to Narda, he packed his things and moved into the empty room which had originally belonged to Yifan and Tao before it became abandoned when Yifan left over six months prior. The surprise of Jongin becoming a dad was soon made aside to make way for Baekhyum topping it by getting Narda arrested.

Acacia had also let Narda know that she followed her advice and told Jongin about their baby. He had been very supportive, and though they both didn't want to get back together, they still would be responsible enough to be friends and take care of that baby together.

Narda was happy for them, since she knew Jongin would be the type to support her. She knew he would probably be a great father to their baby.

The two young expecting parents decided it was best to keep the news from the press, since they didn't want Acacia getting harrassed. Their plan was that she would remain in Korea the first few months, and Jongin would be present at all her docto's appointments, and he would take care of anything she needed. Then she would move to a rural village in the mountains of Argentina until the baby's birth. Only until after the birth of the baby she would return to Korea where they would announce it to everyone.

It was all for the safety of Acacia and the baby. Jongin and the others had seen how Florencia was treated when she first arrived in Korea. He didn't want the same for Acacia and their baby.

After their conversation and catching up, Acacia was sitting at the reception desk at Free Smiles Club's offices with Vivi sitting on her lap. Acacia loved Sehun's dog and he was very wellbehaved with her. But Florencia was always complaining about him. She was convinced that Vivi was out to get her, and that he was jealous of her because she was dating Sehun. Acacia always laughed and said her sister was being ridiculous, but she also knew that it was true that Vivi found a particular amusement in messing with Florencia.

He chewed up her expensive shoes, yanked clothes out of the closet and used them as a makeshift bed, he scratched her bedroom walls at night and didn't let her sleep. Acacia thought it was just normal pup things. But Florencia was convinced Vivi didn't like her because he only seemed to mess with her.

She was in the middle of posing for a selfie with Vivi when the front door opened. In walked Chanyeol with determination, stopping in front of Acacia's desk.

"Is Guti here?" He asked, gesturing to the closed door that led to the back offices. He seemed to already know the answer though.

Acacia's eyes widened.

"Uh..." She was speechless.

Recognizing Chanyeol, Vivi jumped off her lap and walked over to him. But Chanyeol had his own reasons to be there and ignored the little dog who sought his attention.

Acacia got up from her seat at the desk and opened the back door after motioning for Chanyeol to give her a minute. Narda and Florencia looked towards her when they saw the door open. Acacia whispered to her, "Narda, Chanyeol is here to see you. What should I tell him?"

Narda's eyes widened as she saw a familiar face peek into the office from the lobby. She tried in vain to hide herself behind the computer monitor, but it was already too late.

"I miss you, Guti." He said in his deep voice. "Why are you hiding from me?"
