Growing bond observed
At home, the father noticed how his wife and the newborn were bonding. She would sing lullabies, feed her with care, and smile tenderly.
Meanwhile, their son stood by, watching but not engaging. ‘That’s not my sister,’ he’d repeat whenever asked.
The father’s unease deepened with each assertion, chipping away at his peace. He couldn’t ignore his son’s words any longer.
This persistent doubt was eroding the family’s harmony.
