"You accepted the offer? Despite us having that long and serious discussion on how it was going to affect our relationship? I thought we agreed that you were going to continue as KKR mentor", Gautam Gambhir had expected this reaction from his husband.
"Look, we hadn't decided anything. It was always my dream to coach the Indian team and lead us to a world cup title. If I can do it with my husband playing under me, it would be the cherry on my cake", Gautam tried to pacify his "ready to combust" husband.
"You have seen the amount of drama around us during the IPL. I hardly survive those fights, Gauti. Ab ye poora saal ka drama mere se nahi hoga. Either you refuse this offer or you reveal to the world that we are married. There is no in-between". The ultimatum he expected long back had been served to Gambhir.
"Ok", Gautam said. "OK what Gautam? You are refusing the job or revealing our relationship?", asked the angry man.
"I am revealing to the world that you belong to me, Virat Gambhir Kohli. No more drama- I will inform the board tomorrow and we will address the press after that as a couple. But come what may, you are going to win the World Cup under me", announced the new Indian coach to his husband of 7 years.
It was a win-win in Virat's book- he gets to spend more time with his husband and also stop pretending that they are arch-rivals. Of course, the aggressive arguments would continue, no matter where they were. He would need to warn the team accordingly.
