Considering in chapter 2, we know that Kotori's mother already passed away when she was still a child, on page 10, it should be:
"I want to go to the same school as my mother went in Tokyo!"
This becomes truer the longer the series runs too.
Kotori's whole vibe is "nostalgia" and while Haruka didn't start out that way, she eventually turns into the nostalgic idol for many.
