We analyse the decay $\Theta_s(1/2^+)\to NK$ in a non-relativistic Fock space description using three and five constituent quarks for the nucleon and the pentaquark, respectively. Following Jaffe and Wilczek \cite{jw}, we assume that quark-quark correlations in spin-zero state play an important role for the pentaquark internal structure. Within this scenario, a strong dynamical suppression of the decay width is shown to be possible only if the pentaquark has an asymmetric "peanut" structure with the strange antiquark in the center and the two extended composite diquarks rotating around. In this case a decay width of $\simeq$ 1 MeV may be a natural possibility.
