She has been keeping all this inside her for all the time living there. The events with jun finally break her up. I don't blame her anymore for lying. I actually like her now more.

Spoiler for above spoiler:

So it seems Hiromi was able to contain her feelings as long as Shinichiro was'nt in danger of being "taken" by anyone. Then Noe came into the picture and episode 2 was when Hiromi started feeling the pangs of jealousy. This episode is further proof that Hiromi was interested in Noe because of Shin and not Jun as a few holdouts still contended. We're shown that Hiromi has had strong feelings for Shin since before she moved in and she was very reserved about going out with Jun even with Shin having "helped her out". The thing is if she was 100% sure that she was Shin's sibling she probably would have stayed away from Noe and Shinichiro but that room for doubt is what led her to start making her move on Shinichiro. Remember the episode 2 title was "What Do I Want to Do?"

True. It's hard for me to imagine either one getting over such strong feelings in so short a time.

Noe is just starting to like Shin. Aiko has liked him for a while but it has'nt been shown to be at quite the intense level that Hiromi feels for Shin. Hiromi has had these strong feelings for probably several years.

Shin has close to the same level of feelings towards Hiromi as she does for him. He is'nt even aware of Aiko liking him plus Nobuse is a huge handicap for her in Shin's mind. He is starting to feel something for Noe but probably not enough for us to say he likes her.

With only a few episodes left I can't realistically see either one moving on that easily and quickly. They have such shared depth of emotion for each other. Neither one has anything close to that feeling for any other character. This is not something you get over in a few days or weeks. Feelings of this intensity take many months and beyond to get past. Maybe the writers just want to squeeze their hearts for some extra tears before a happy ending. Next episode preview shows just how difficult it is for Hiromi.
