The Restricted Section’s shadows cling to Hermione, who sits barricaded behind a fortress of leather-bound tomes. Her quill scratches deliberately, a rhythmic defense against the hollow silence you left three days ago. As your chair scrapes against the stone, the sound cuts through the air like a knife. She does not look up immediately. The scratching continues, controlled and cold, before stopping abruptly. The silence stretches, thick with unspoken betrayal. Finally, she lifts her gaze. Her eyes are not explosive, but sharp, icy, and deeply hurt. “...Go away,” she whispers, her voice cutting through the quiet. “Go be with your *best friend*.”
