Megha couldn't help but notice Gautam's grave expression. She sensed that he might be on the verge of getting really angry. She hesitated for a moment, holding onto her phone tightly, unwilling to hand it over to him just yet.
Without saying a word, Gautam reached out and grabbed her phone from her hand.
Her eyes widened in surprise, "Hey, what are you doing?"
Gautam didn't respond, simply took the phone from her grasp.
Quickly, she snatched it back, her tone serious, "I don't have his number. We've only been messaging through instagram."
She opened her instagram, her fingers hovering over the screen as she debated what to type. "Gaurav, I don't think it's right of you to dupe your audience. Your post is too misleading. Your fans think that you're in love but that's not true at all. I think it's best that you tell the truth."
Gautam, growing impatient, looked over her shoulder to read what she was typing.
Megha, feeling his gaze, hesitated for a moment before continuing to compose her message. But before she could finish, Gautam reached out and took the phone from her again.
She protested, "Hey, what are you doing? I can handle this myself."
Ignoring her protests, Gautam continued typing furiously on her phone.
She knew that he would not do it nicely, so she quickly took her phone. He then stood up tall and raised the phone up high with his arms.
She jumped up and down, trying to reach for it but he stood there calmly and quickly typed, "Mr. Gaurav Kapoor, I'm actually already married. I love my husband very much. Your actions make me feel like I have let him and my family down. So, please don't post such things that will easily mislead people and cause rumors. It is for the good of both of us. All this situation is very stressful for my family. Please understand and don't behave like a jerk!"
Megha saw him write a long paragraph, but it was too blurry so she couldn't make the words out.
She grew anxious and said, "Gautam, give my phone back. I will do it myself. I don't need your help."
He ignored her and continued typing with expressionless face.
As soon as Gautam pressed 'send', a reply came from Gaurav.
It read, "Are you seriously lying about being married just to avoid me?"
His lips curled up, "Do you want me to show you my marriage certificate? I'm really married and it really disgusts me that you would get me involved in all this mess."
"Disgusted? In what way am I not being good that it makes you hate me? I thought you told me before that I am your idol, you admire and like me?"
Gautam could not help but sigh as he replied, "Those words were just to compliment you. I thought you have that much maturity that you would understand my words. Since you decided to drag me into this mess, don't tell me you actually like me?
