Momiko is more blunt, looking up at the big man and holding her nose, "...what happened to you? That's mother's perfume, isn't it?"

"Hai, that's right, Asahina-sama. But I'm fine, no need to worry."
He motions for Momiko to enter and she does so after another moment's pause.

As has been stated before, Yoshi may be shy and inexperienced, but he is neither naive nor unobservant. He could well imagine how a man might come to smell strongly of a woman's perfume, especially a woman whom he just saw in a certain state of dress, with a certain interest that her daughter had listed among others in front of him only a brief while ago. He blushes rather fiercely at his deduction, and tries not to catch Jio's eye as he enters the car behind Momiko. Of course, keeping his attention off the ronin in an attempt to hide what he was thinking about him only meant that he had a good view of Momiko's body as she bent over in her tight dress to get into the car, giving him all new thoughts albeit in a similar vein.
As before, he could be stopped prior to joining her for a parting word from the man, but if not, he'll join Momiko inside, choosing to sit next to her wherever she was sitting, rather than simply favoring the front-facing one as he had on their ride back from the movie.

Jio can see the Tamori's face in the light from the car, and realizes the conclusion the boy is drawing. It's incorrect, and the ronin contemplates trying to explain things... but it's a long story and perhaps not worth keeping them.
He closes the door behind Yoshi and walks around to the driver seat.

Momiko was on the front seat again, smiling and making room for Yoshi on it.

Yoshi eagerly joins Momiko on the rear-facing seat after he enters, just taking in the sight of her while trying not to stare at her accentuated figure or exposed skin, to which the dress, or lack thereof, drew his attention. They had covered so much ground, both spatially and emotionally, in so seemingly short a time now that it was ending, he finds himself at a loss for exactly what to say or do next. His hand just finds hers again, for their mutual comfort this time perhaps, though her bare knee proved momentarily to be a palpably tempting alternative.

Momiko's hands are busy, so knee it is! She adjusts her windbreaker, "Well, very little went as expected for me. You?"

Yoshi hadn't meant to be so forward but, feeling the need to make some gesture of affection rather than just sit there staring, he did indeed opt for the knee in lieu of her busy hands. He almost doesn't register her words over the new sensation of touching her there, except that the statement and question were so very on-point for the whole evening, including what just occurred, that he immediately connects with them.
"Well, I... did expect to learn more about you," he offers to reassure her that he hadn't been totally thrown by all the revelations. He pauses to let that sink in before continuing with the honest counterpoint. "What I found out... and what happened after... I admit I didn't expect... but... I'm not put off by any of it. I'm... honored... to have your trust."

Momiko beams happily, finished with her coat, "It feels good to have it all out there. I was so afraid you would be put off by something, like my family or my house or the things I felt I needed to keep secret. I'm sorry for keeping those things from you before."

"It's ok; I understand you had to get to know me better first," Yoshi tells her, his hand ever so slightly stroking her knee in reflexive gesture of support. With a reluctant sigh, he continues, "There was a lot to take in, but... I guess I'm just going to have to... learn to play Kaijumon." He finishes with a grin, his apprehension clearly feigned as part of a joke.
"I mean, seriously... if you'll teach me... and lend me a deck," he adds, smiling hopefully.
