Thank you for the bug report! Was there an error message when the game hard locked? I did a playthrough recreating your steps, and I haven't been able to get the hard lock to occur.
Ah, I think I may have found it! I just reloaded and decided on a whim to change my clothing, see if that fixed it. It did! I switched to wearing the flannel option at some point, and I changed back to the pink blouse and I'm bug free! Hope this helps pinpoint the issue!
