Dinner Date

I rushed to my college as I saw Amit, my boyfriend waiting for me in the parking lot. "Hey babe, you free tonight?" he asked excited and I nodded. "What do you think of a dinner date tonight?" he asked and I nodded feeling relieved since I did not have to eat instant noodles. "Sounds cool. What restaurant are we going to?" I asked and he shook his head. "You are gonna cook babe." he said and my jaw literally dropped on the floor. "You alright?" he asked and I regained my composure and managed to smile. "Ok. Your place tonight at 9". he said running to his class as I cursed silently under my breath. "What happened Riya ?" my friend Ayesha asked. "Dude I have a date night and I have to cook. I seriously don't know to cook anything except coffee. Ok not even coffee maybe." I said nervously and she laughed. "Dude why do we have youtube then? Just check out the dish you wanna cook, buy the ingredients, follow the video and Voila!" she said in a dramatic tone. "Will it work?" I asked and she nodded. "What should I cook?" I asked and she shook her head in disbelief. "Check his Instagram...duh" she said laughing and I felt my confidence rising too. I checked his Instagram page and he had shared a picture of mushroom risotto. Seriously? I can't make instant noodles properly and now I have to cook Risotto. "Great!" I mumbled to myself and checked for its recipe on Youtube. There were many suggestions and I clicked on the one which said "most easy way to make Risotto." I was satisfied with the recipe and rushed to the market to buy the ingredients. Finally, I went to my flat and first decorated the dining table with candles and other stuff. "You can do this Riya!" I said to myself and started cooking. "Now add some wine for extra flavour." the lady in the video said. I rolled my eyes while stirring the pot filled with the gravy. I added the entire bottle since Amit loved wine. Big flames erupted from the pot as I stumbled and fell down on the floore. The chimney managed to reduce the smoke while I poured water over the flames. Sighing I looked at the now burnt gravy I prepared. Suddenly I saw smoke coming from the oven and I realised I had burnt my mug cake which was the dessert.
I looked at Amit's reaction as he ate. He moaned in delight as he ate the risotto. "I am seriously marrying you, this food is amazing." he said and I blushed eating the risotto. I had to pay five hundred bucks to Ayesha for the mushroom risotto and brownie I ordered from the restaurant.
"Dude your neighbour's dog is dead." Ayesha said the next day and I was shocked. Well, I gave the mug cake to that dog yesterday. "Really?" I said and shrugged.
