The revelation weighed heavily on Nakul's mind. He spent hours alone, wrestling with the truth. The child—his child—was tied to an ancient curse, something far beyond his comprehension. How could he be a father to a being connected to such darkness? Every time he thought about the baby's glowing eyes or the eerie whispers, a cold shiver ran down his spine. But the baby was also a part of him, and deep down, Nakul knew that no matter what, he couldn't just abandon the child.

Pradyuman, though reluctant, knew it was time for Nakul to face reality head-on. He encouraged Nakul to spend more time with the baby, but the bond remained distant. Abhijeet, ever supportive, tried to be the bridge between father and child, reminding Nakul that despite the child's supernatural ties, there was still humanity in them.

"You've been through so much, Nakul," Abhijeet said one evening. "But this child needs you. Whatever power they hold, they're still your blood. You can shape who they become."

Nakul wanted to believe that, but his fear always clouded his thoughts. Every time he tried to approach the child, he felt that same, unsettling energy. But there was something else too—an unspoken connection. The baby seemed to sense his hesitations, its strange, knowing eyes always following him. Nakul began to wonder if the child understood more than he realized.
