How to fix "remote: Permission to username/repository.git denied to username2. fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/usernames/repository.git' "

I've seen similar questions but mine is quite different. Let me explain

I cloned a repository on github "https://github.com/username/repository"

The repository is not mine, but people have access to clone, push changes and make pull request. But I can't push to the repository. I don't know why I have this problem.

whenever I push my branch

git push origin new-branch

I get the error: remote: "Permission to username/repository.git denied to username2. fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/usernames/repository.git/': the requested URL returned error: 403"

Initially, I forked the repository, created a branch and made my pull request. But I wasn't supposed to fork the repository, so I deleted the forked repository.

How do I fix the permission error and push changes?
