Momoko is caught up in the possibilities of neuro-linguistic programming for a moment. That would have been helpful in the weeks spent waiting for the Games to start. "Can you do it?" she asks, hoping she only sounds idly curious. Then she tilts her head and asks, with sincere curiosity, "She's your coworker? Are you...entertainers?"

"My grandmother," says Momoko in response to his question. Not the first person that comes to mind, but a key part of Momoko's 'story' for the cameras. "I live with her and my father, who is...well-meaning but useless. I take care of things, especially my grandmother. I don't know how things are going without me..."

Momoko carefully doesn't bring up Ichigo, because being friends with an uncouth biker chick would ruin her cultivated image. And maybe, slightly, because there's a part of her that doesn't want to bring Ichigo into this world, into her life of lies and performance. Better she stay locked up in Momoko's memories for now.
