Red petal || KTH

*PART 24*

After finishing his workout, Jungkook stepped out of the shower, towel-drying his hair. He sat on his bed, lost in thought about Taehyung's call. "What am I supposed to do, Taehyung? You want me to go see her and ask her to contact you?" he murmured, letting out a deep sigh. Jungkook knew he had no choice but to watch her from afar, having already messed up with her feelings towards him. After a moment, he sighed again. "Seriously, Taehyung? You can go yourself. You're the king of making up excuses to get what you want," he muttered to himself as he walked to his wardrobe, getting ready to meet Mr. Ameer Saheb.

                  TAEHYUNG's pov -'♡'-

Taehyung groaned, landing a hard punch on the punching bag. "Red Petal, what did he do to make you act like this?" he shouted, stopping to wipe the sweat from his forehead. "Red Petal, my Red Petal! You have no idea how desperate I am to see you. But I'm terrified to approach you when you're angry. If I come at the wrong time, you might push me away, and I can't bear that thought," he muttered, rubbing his forehead in frustration before collapsing onto the couch.

Taehyung's heart was sending him signals, like it was time for something. He buried his face in his palm, his elbows resting on his thighs.

Meanwhile, Jungkook licked his lips as he stood in front of Mr. Ameer Saheb's home. "I don't know what brought me here or what my heart wants to find out. If this invisible power is true, just give me the right signal, Allah," he unknowingly made his first dua to his Creator. Nervously biting his lips, he proceeded to press the doorbell and waited for the door to open.

His eyes showed a hint of curiosity as the door opened to reveal a young man in a white kurta. "Are you the one who was on the call with Sahebji a while ago?" the man asked.

"Yes, I am. Is Mr. Saheb inside?" Jungkook replied, a small smile creeping onto his lips.

The man nodded. "Yes, he's waiting for you and asked me to bring you inside when you arrived. Please, come in."

Jungkook smiled and stepped inside, following the man to Mr. Saheb's study.

As he reached the study, Jungkook saw Mr. Saheb, a middle aged man with a long grey beard and a white turban, sitting on his chair and reciting something while looking into a thick book. Jungkook recognized it as the Quran, having seen it on Google when he searched about Islam. When Mr. Saheb noticed Jungkook, he gently closed the Quran and made a dua. Jungkook and the young man waited patiently until he finished.

After his dua, Mr. Saheb slowly wiped his face with both palms and looked at Jungkook. "Are you here, my child?" A wide grin spread across Mr. Saheb's face.

Jungkook smiled back. "Assalamu alaikum, sir. It's great to see you in person."

Mr. Saheb chuckled, walked over, and gently patted Jungkook's back. "Wa alaikumussalam, child. I am the luckiest to teach my deen to someone chosen by Allah."

Jungkook smiled but raised his eyebrow in confusion. Noticing this, Mr. Saheb added, "This is Shahid. He's one of my students, a revert, and new to the faith like you." He gestured to the young man standing with Jungkook.

"I'm glad that I got the inspiration to move forward, sir," Jungkook said earnestly.

Mr. Saheb looked at him and spoke, "If Allah has decided to show you the right path, He won't stop giving you the inspiration to keep moving forward."

"I want to leave for work, Sahebji," Shahid spoke up getting both jungkook's and mr saheb's attention.

"You can go, my child. Take care. Allah hafiz," Sahebji replied warmly.

Shahid smiled, "Allah hafiz, Sahebji. Jazakhallah for teaching me new lessons today."

Sahebji smiled, "Ameen. It's a blessing to teach you, my child."
