She liked Makoto cause he felt rare and unique out of everyone.

The more she got closer the more new things about him he found out, which made him more valuable and more rare for her as she's never seen someone like him.

But now Makoto is becoming a common thing in her life.

He's no longer this uniquely unfathomable person, his rarity went down because she she's him almost everyday now.

And now she's beginning to realize something about her feeling for him.

Did she ever truly liked Makoto for his self, or did she only ever like him cause he was special when compared to everyone else around her.

It's like with a rare item in a game, you get excited from seeing it and once you get it it feels great!

But once the honeymoon phase is over, once the fact this supposedly rare item becomes nothing more than another item in you inventory, you come to the question "was that item really something I wanted, or did I just get caught in the appeal of its rarity?"

Aoi didn't really like Makoto for him, she liked him cause "she" was special, and cause she made "her" feel special.

She liked the fact that Makoto also felt Aoi was someone special because Aoi wasn't scared of him or avoided him after finding his secret.

Now Aoi is starting to question if she ever really liked "him" romantically as a person at all.

I'm surprised she doesn't resent her father at all.

She has felt lonely pretty much all her life due to his father's decision and even though her grandpa and grandpa most likely loved her a lot, it's not the same. If her parents had died, it would probably be different. They would be gone, so she wouldn't have a choice, but to seek love from her grandparents. But both of her parents are alive, and they are almost as unavailable as if they were dead...

Her wanting to have something special to her comes from that, imo. It's a way to try to overcome the loneliness she has felt for so long. Is love coming from that kind of place, real love? She cares for him, but the whale keychain probably made her think, "Do I like senpai as much as my dad likes whales? Or as much as grandma loves grandpa? Do I actually like him?"

Hopefully her parents get shit on by pigeons daily forever, even when they six feet under. Basically, the world saying, "Oh... we didn't shit on them today? Send the pigeons!" Dad's at fault for everything here, but her mom is also a work of art for completely disappearing from her life, even though she knew her ex-husband wouldn't pay attention to their child...
