Perhaps she's bi and is hoping it would be with Oro? Perhaps she's struggling with what he is to her. Just a thought, but going along the though process of Saki, it does seem that Ideka said "Friend" defensively that at first glance to us readers would seem like she was saying there's nothing between them, but for Saki, she may be realizing based on the reaction, Ideka's "Friend" comment may have been moreso to deflect that specific topic. Add with the emphasis on "Like", here, it perhaps shows that while Ideka has an interest in pursuing a physical encounter with Saki, emotionally she has reservations, and potentially in conflict with other desires of her.

I think the issue is she fears bonding. Trust bonding has been an important subject of this story and it likely lies at the root here

Poor Idekawise, she’s terrified of loosing herself /her past
I am also really curious to see what Sakitori is thinking the issue is.
I would think she’d see Oro was the closest thing she has to family left.

She means he's a snack.
But seriously, he's more of a dad than a mate to her, from what I can tell

I adore how straightforward she is. Obviously she enjoys her work ^^

Could she be jealous?

She’s a virgin, .., that’s my bet. And haven’t we all been terrified as we approached that… 1st time?
