She gently laughs at Kimiko's response. "Well, I never said I got it all right..." By setting her hands on the gyoza, she could tell they've already cooled down significantly. The air conditioning in this place is excellent, so it's no surprise. "By the way, it's still no small feat that you managed to steal OS&C property like that. Not sure you could get away with it these days. I hear the current CEO used to be a Junker." She switches her focus from the drink to the food, and picks up one of the dumplings. She dips it in the sauce and makes sure to liberally coat the portion she's going to bite into before taking it to her mouth and politely biting it. She wants to display proper table manners, so to that end she takes care to not make a mess or stain her clothing with the sauce by making sure it doesn't drip, and eating over the plate to prevent any crumbs from finding their way into or onto her clothes.
She repeats this process for the next few bites and in no time, three gyoza are down. "My, the flavor of the sauce and the meat filling is just excellent... Any of you care to try?" She takes a break from the food to wash what she just ate down with her fizz. This time though, she sips at a slow pace to ensure she doesn't overwhelm her stomach.
"Sure I'll take some" Akio was hungry after all the excitement and was eager to try them. He also wanted to be careful not to eat too aggressively so as not to turn away Kimiko as he still hoped that they could be friends.
