Uta: (thinking) Huh, she sure does go along with whatever's easiest, and she's basically screaming for help about that. I should be careful not to give her an out where she just falls back into old patterns.
Uta: (speaking) I think you'll love my brother and be happy living here with him forever!
Maybe I'm just being dense today, but I really don't know what in the hell is going on in that scene.
After the "it's no big deal" part, and through the whole time Kaoru is actually unburdening herself, Uta seems to be leading up to some kind of "go for it--be honest with Reiichi so you can move on with your life" advice crescendo. Then:
"Try to do what you can for now." What does that even mean?
If this were an entirely different kind of series, I'd almost think Uta was saying, "What a relief it wasn't my fault you were suffering--now fuck off with my cheating brother and leave me alone."
That's a bit too much to hope for, though, I'm almost positive.
Can we be done with this story yet?
Also I agree with this person. What does "do what you can for now" even mean? Someone answered with the depression angle, but I don't know if it explains it enough. Like it's way too vague of advice. Do they mean like well he's gone right now, so just breathe, and then when you see him let him know what you want to say?
