Someone at work lied and told my boss that I already started a new job

I’ve been out sick with the flu since Saturday. My boss texted me saying that someone told him that I already started a new job somewhere else, and if that’s the case then I should resign. I been applying to jobs in optometry and I asked one of the doctors to be my reference so I guess that’s how it got out, however it’s not true that I started a new job, I’ve only been looking. From what I thought, this type of stuff should’ve been discreet or was I naive to think that it wouldn’t get out? Not sure what to do at this point, if I should respond or continue showing up to work? This whole convo left a bad taste in my mouth and now I REALLY don’t want to go in anymore.
