Being calm and collected all the time takes effort.

It's like "We just visited your fathers grave it's time for sex" like...no
It didn't feel right to me and it felt awkward.

Ahem.
It wasn't just a visit to a grave. It was Emi finally letting Hisao into her life fully. Accepting his presence in the innermost sanctum of her soul, which was something she strenuously avoided in her life generally to that point. An emotional catharsis and an extremely vulnerable moment. And he responded delicately and well. Then they traveled back home, with almost nothing being said — plenty of time for the mood to ease back into something like normalcy. Then they ended up at her room, and Emi was fairly intent on cementing this new state of affairs and not just saying "see you tomorrow". A tender expression of love was more than appropriate at that point.
How'd I do?
