Aya is unfortunately good at playing her cards close to her chest. We haven't seen any sign yet of either Erika or Koto noticing certain major things like Aya being relieved her grandfather is dead, and seemingly how bad things were when she was 14 to feel relief rather than grief hearing that news. It's possible Aya had a whole Laura Palmer style double life going on back then lol.
As an aside, something else I recently noticed wrt maturity: 21yo Erika is very deliberately trying to be mature, but only where other people can see her. She puts a lot of effort into her fashion and appearance, takes her job seriously, is respected as reliable by her friends, but then we see her apartment and she's put no effort into cleaning her living space, hasn't bothered learning to cook for herself, etc.
Meanwhile 21 year old Koto when we first see her is dressed very immaturely, with clothing that hides the curves of her body, and is very bad at handling any emotional challenge, from freezing up when Aya first appears in front of her to repeatedly no-showing to avoid talking to Aya. But as soon as that fucking weird moment with the script happens, she's suddenly trying her best to be the adult with her fashion and with her treatment of Aya.
