I wonder,I think what Takako is doing is that she loves Arisa unconditionally. Everyone who deserves Arisa say “before you started doing this” like they would never be able to be with someone who does sex work. Hah sex shaming.
Anyways, I think Arisa and Takako want to live together. Arisa isn’t good at thinking of the future, but I don’t think she’s opposed. She’s a writer and clearly they support each other and care about each other’s livelihood. So as sad as Takako looks, and I’m not too sure at what she’s holding at the end, I think Takako just wants Arisa to be more upfront about her love. It doesn’t feel too Aangsty or Drama or Tragedy. I wanna think that Arisa knows she likes Takako too.
