So is 扱いが酷い a set phrase for "to treat bad"?
Is that the younger brother's answer to the sister's question?
No problem. / It's alright. / No need to worry. (Something obvious from the context) is not in his (another thing obvious from the context).
The actual context is far more complicated than the one we were explained...
The long-haired woman felt the image that the man who wore a suit kicking over a table. It's an image in her mind, not what actually happened (ココロのちゃぶ台 means so). The little girl asked about it, and then the black-haired boy answered "No need to worry. It(= the table) doesn't exist in my mind". お兄ちゃん refers to the boy himself here.
合う, not 似合う, is used.If I am trying to say something like, Gyoza "goes well" with soysauce. Would I write,餃子は醤油と似合う？ Or, how would I say, Gyouza and soysauce tastes good together? 餃子と醤油似合ったら、おいしいです。
Isn't いまひとつ originally 「いま一つ足りない」?イマイチ came from いまひとつ、both means "could be better".
