I can't be certain, but if I had to guess -Why did Hikari cover for Kuro and act like she didn't know where she is, when she saw her hugging blonde dude on the beach? As far as she is concerned MC and Kuro are relatives.
Either because she wanted to give Kuro privacy since all she saw was her hugging Lower Half MVP and got embarrassed for walking into what seemed like an intimate moment; or
She remembers that Lower-Half MVP had previously basically bet Kuro like a trophy in the baseball game, that the MC was not happy about that, and doesn't want to risk an altercation on the beach if he were to see Kuro hugging the guy, since they did in fact have to get back to work soon anyway.
That said, I don't know if I myself buy either option, as I think it was kind of a nonsensical response from her whatever the case. But the first kinda feels more appropriate, because "being flustered at moments of intimacy from others" is such a hardwired trope in romcom / romance drama manga that it would be reasonable to assume she'd freak out seeing two random people doing that, much less Kuro and Blondie.
