I was overthinking this when I read this and thought that Adachi was hallucinating or something... I thought it seemed weird that Shimamura wasn't all that excited at first and then randomly said "I love you" right after Adachi started getting disappointed. Then Shimamura apparently didn't remember she said that and was embarrassed to say that even though she supposedly said it earlier that day. I guess she just could've been so tired she forgot though, or she could've just been teasing Adachi. It does seem like Shimamura was genuinely confused though, so I guess she was just tired.
I also thought it was weird that Adachi thought someone else was laughing and not her, but I guess she's just not used to laughing like that and surprised herself. That probably makes more sense based on the flashback right after that scene.
