I didn't send it

Signed the contract. Did not send the note. That is the whole day, yaar.

I sat with the laptop open for hours. Gate open only if needed. Driver on call. No filming in the big room. Leave without a fine. I read each line like a small prayer. Not one word about him. So I wrote a note. Hinglish. Just a line. Please keep Karan out of my space. My finger was on send for so long.

Then I closed the chat and signed. Bas.

I am so funny. I protect strangers in contracts. I cannot protect me in one little message.

Then Niharika posted. The sangeet I did last night. Her Reel. Twelve thousand views. Bride's mum crying. I watched for two seconds. Closed it.

Pata nahi who I am mad at. Her, me, or the room full of people who loved her tonight. I am picking a fight with a girl on the internet because it is safer than the thing I am scared of. I know this. Still doing it.

Goodnight. Signed. Did not send it. I am fine.
