Welp it was kinda a lot of bad things comming together but still ....

So did you also have some yuri feelings for this Maiko girl and she got creeped out Hina ? Thatd make your shyness and problem with others finding out your hobby understandable.

Welp who'll have the guts to burst through this awkward atmosphere? Im thinking Hana cuz shes the one who thinks she fucked up.

So Maiko is definitely the person that Hina wants to see her in magazines but they had some kind of falling out that left Hina with some strong negative feelings. Hina also has strong romantic feelings towards Hana and has likely had those feelings for a while which rules out Maiko as being a romantic interest anytime recently.

Maiko being dead seems to account for all of this but that's a pretty dramatic call for me to make at this point so I'm not sure
