In the manga, on the first page of Volume 2 Chapter 9, Chiya comes to wake her up by making a lot of noise, and says, "If you're late, I'll have to apologize to your parents who are working remotely." She adds (in smaller font for, I guess, a quieter voice), "I already told them that I will be doing this if you oversleep." So unless there's a serious translation error there, her parents are alive but "working remotely" ... which probably means out of town for a significant period.
