(Nehal had just finished changing into her comfy baggy hoodie and sweatpants, slipping her hijab on with care. She sat down to recite the Quran, her mind drifting into the peaceful verses. But as she continued, loud voices and music filtered up from downstairs. She tried to ignore the noise, but it only grew louder, the beat of the music thumping through the floorboards)

(Frustrated, Nehal stood up and made her way downstairs, her footsteps heavy with irritation. She found Jungkook sitting on the couch, completely absorbed in a video game, his PS5 controller in his hands and loud music blasting from the speakers)

Nehal: "What's wrong with you? I am reading my Quran and you're distracting me with this loud music."

(Jungkook didn't even look up from the screen, his eyes focused on the game as he mumbled)

Jungkook: "So what should I do?"

(Nehal crossed her arms, her patience running thin)

Nehal: "Turn off this music right now!"

Jungkook: "No."

Nehal: "Listen, I'm—"

(But before she could finish her sentence, her gaze shifted to the screen and she did a double-take)

Nehal: "Woah... You're playing Creed: Rise to Glory?"

(Jungkook paused the game, a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. He looked up at her, amusement dancing in his eyes)

Jungkook: "How do you know about this game?"

(Nehal's lips curled into a playful grin as she spoke)

Nehal: "Ahan... When I was 14, I loved boxing. But my brother didn't allow me to learn it he said I was a girl and too young. So instead of letting me train, he bought me boxing CDs. I've been dying to play this game, but my PS4 broke."

(Jungkook's eyes widened for a second as he processed her words)

Jungkook: "Oh, I see... but don't expect me to let you play, okay?"

Nehal: "What do you mean? Why can't I?"

(Jungkook, keeping his eyes on the screen, smirked)

Jungkook: "Because I don:t want your dirty hands on my precious PS5 controller. Now, please, go back and recite your Quran or whatever."

(Nehal raised an eyebrow, a challenge in her tone)

Nehal; "What if I told you that I'm going to make you lose in this game because I'm a professional player?"

(Jungkook glanced back at her, skeptical, his frown deepening)

Jungkook: "Oh, really? You dare?"

(Nehal's smile was full of confidence)

Nehal: "Yes, I dare you."

(Jungkook chuckled and then gave her a calculating look)

Jungkook: "Okay then, let's make a bet."

Nehal: "What kind of bet?"

(Jungkook paused the game and turned fully to face her, a mischievous glint in his eye)

Jungkook: "We'll play three rounds of this game. If I lose, I'll listen to you for a whole week. But if you lose..."

Nehal: "Then...?"

(Jungkook’s smirk widened)

Jungkook: "Then you'll have to ask me for forgiveness while kneeling and stay with me in my room for one whole week."
