And does Touko even like Yumi at all? throughout ova 3 and so far as 4th season she seems to dislike her? or is she just hiding it....

Spoiler for Slight spoilers:

I'm *just* up to the point where Yumi and Touko become soeurs, so I don't know much past that. I can tell you that the story of how Touko's affection for Yumi is developed is told in much detail in the novels; to the point where quite a few people complained at the slow pace. It's not too bad if you're able to read several volumes in a short period, but at the pace of three or four volumes a year, it certainly can become unbearable.

I personally think Touko's emotions were very well portrayed in these latter volumes 20+. Yumi, less so, but in her case she had a head start (in volume 15ish).
