"Its alright, you didnt know."He replied and smiled at her as he saw the waiter bring them their meal and drinks.

Bella nodded. She thanked the waiter, and then said a quick prayer.

Bao also thanked the waiter and gave a pair of chopsticks and gently handed them to Bella. He took his own and put it in his hand, and then put his hands together and bowed, "Itadakimasu!"he said and smiled

Bella took the chopsticks just as gently as they were handed to her. "Thank you, Bao."

Bao smiled sweetly and said, "Your welcome."he then began eating his salad and made sure his elbows were off the table like a proper gentleman.

Bella began to eat. Her elbows were on the table, ad she ate like an animal, trying to keep it minimum.

Bao looked up at her every few seconds as he ate, "Slow down there, if you eat too fast, it will give you a stomach ache."He said and laughed alittle.

Bella realized how she was eating. "Oh my gosh. So I eat like a pig."

Bao waved his hand in the air alittle and said, "Its alright, im used to watching people-- or animals eating like this, it doesnt bother me."He then added, "I used to eat like a slob."he laughed

"I usually eat by myself, so I don't worry about how I eat." Bella said.

Bao laughed alittle and said, "Once i got to the point where i knew people were watching me, i started to eat more mannerly."

"I see." Bella tried to eat more lady like.

Bao smiled and went back to eating, looking at her every few seconds to see how she was doing.

Bella looked at Bao curiously. With her mouth full she asked, "Is this any better?"

Bao looked back at her and swallowed his food, he whiped his mouth with the napkin and set it back down on the table. "Dont talk with your mouth full."He stated and laughed alittle.
