"This way, sir and ma'am," the server lead them to a circular table decorated with an oil lit lamp at the center of it.
"Thank you." Fitz replied and immediately let go of her arm and pulled the chair for KM to sit before he sat on his chair.
Realizing that Fitz was being a gentleman to her, she then sit at the chair and said, "Thank you," with a smile to him, while Fitz reciprocated her smile and smiled back at her.
They then ordered baked scallops, shanghai fried rice, beef tips tenderloin, wanton soup, breaded prawns, siomai and pancit canton.
There were two sets of untensils, they have a choice of using either chopsticks or the spoon and fork utensils. Fitz used the spoon and fork while KM used the chopsticks.
Fitz insisted to serve the food on KM's plate eventhough she initially told him that she don't want to be served. So she gave in and allowed him to serve her.
While eating, Fitz have carefully watched KM's every move and admired her. Even the way she eats with the chopsticks, he found her very cute and admirable.
Having noticed his close watch on her, she paused and asked, "What? Is there a peck on my face that you have that intense look on me?"
"N-nothing! I'm just admiring you of how you used the chopsticks so good, like it was your lifestyle at home." Fitz admitted.
"Oh, this? It's not really my lifestyle at home. My mom used to taught me how to do it everytime she cooks chinese-filipino cuisine at home, and so I learned to do it myself. Although not all the time that she cooks chinese-filipino cuisine, but occasionally she does." KM explained with a smile.
"Oh I see. Would you teach me then?" Fitz winked at her.
"You really wanna learn how to do it?"
"Yes!"
"Okay give me your hand... and this is how to do it." KM reached out to his hand, handed him the chopsticks and guided his hand to do it.
And as their hands touched, Fitz felt warm that made his heart skipped a beat. "Her soft gentle hand felt so good on me," he thought and curved his lips into a smile.
KM paused a bit from demonstrating when she felt his warmth too. Skipped her heart a beat, for a split seconds. "Oh, it felt good to hold his strong hand," she thought and tried to ignore her feelings and then continued demonstrating and guiding his hand.
"Keep practicing for a little bit, and you'll quickly get it." KM released his hand to allow him to practice doing it himself.
"Oh, food is wasted me doing it!" Fitz complained as he struggled getting the food using the chopsticks.
"Just keep practicing, and you'll get it soon. Watch me how I do it too." KM winked at him to encourage him.
"Oh okay, I'm trying." Fitz having seen her winked, felt encouraged and winked her back. He continued to practice and watched her until he somehow learned to do it himself and was able to enjoy their meals using the chopsticks.
"Wow, you've learned it quickly!" KM exclaimed in amazement.
"I have a good teacher. Thank you! And all the more I love you." Fitz released a smile with love. His heart skipped a beat again.
And KM, upon hearing his cheesiness just smiled. For she felt his love from those smiles and stares he released upon her.
Soon, they were done eating and they continued their chit chatting while Fitz at the same time continued to closely watched KM's every move.
"So, blue is your favorite color I guess. Is it?" KM queried.
"How did you know?" Fitz smiled at her smart guess.
"Well, you're wearing blue polo shirt and your Bugatti car is blue. There's a saying goes that 'The color of the car speaks of it's owner's personality.' Am I right?"
"Yeah. You got me!" Fitz winked at her.
He reached out her hand and asked, "KM, I love you. Will you give yourself a chance to love me back and be my girlfriend then?"
"Hmm...Give me sometime to think about it! 'Coz in the next days and weeks, I'll be really busy with my career promoting my 2 albums to be released this week. In the meantime, let's just enjoy our date, can we do that?" KM winked and smiled at him.
"Of course, you have all the time you needed. But, please don't make me wait too long."
"Hmmm... okay you will know my answer on the fourth week of this month. How about that?"
"Okay, I'll wait then. Would you want some wine? I'll order."
"Hmm... I want some Ginseng Tea instead."
"Okay. Waiter, two cups of ginseng teas please." Fitz ordered.
"Right away sir!" the waiter left and brought back two cups of ginseng teas as requested.
