It's nothing I'm going to complain about. We have all the time in the world to stay here and nothing will change back home, and it's a lovely distraction for the time being. If whomever brought me here thinks I deserve it, then why on earth would I argue?

It's just a bit odd, I think.

[He seems to shrug a bit then, as much as he can without throwing off his playing.]

Who knows. Maybe they just don't want to instill Hinami-chan with false hope - I wouldn't be surprised if bringing here here did exactly that.
