She didn't exactly deny her. When Satsuki asked Kaho if they should go out, Kaho asked her to clarify what she meant, but Satsuki decided not to answer and attempted to leave instead. I feel like Kaho would have said yes if Satsuki clarified she meant as girlfriends. Kaho later admits in the same chapter that if Satsuki got a girlfriend, then Kaho herself would be lonely as she would be the only one in the friend group without a girlfriend. This tells me that Kaho is definitely open to it, but wanted Satsuki to be more straight forward and honest. I'm also really desperate for Satsuki x Kaho.
