“Roman? It’s about Shiv,” and with that, he pauses. He’s still debating hanging up, willing to live in ignorance rather than accept anything happening to his sister.
“Well, what is it?” Roman responds, impatiently.
“She’s- well, she’s had a hard past few months, Roman, and then-”
“What happened?” Roman says, low and dark, and Tom cuts to the point.

Summary
How did it feel? It felt like he was barely holding it together. She, of all people, should shun him. Or yell at him. Curse him. Spit at him. Take out her wand and blast him off the face of the earth. It was crushing guilt and relief and confusion all at once when he looked at Hermione Granger.
The monotony of Draco’s daily routine had become both a lifeline and a noose. But this new habit of grabbing coffee with Hermione Granger is quickly becoming a reason to get out of bed and is unfortunately forcing him to re-evaluate his inconsequential existence.
Hermione is living her life in fragments, separate pieces scattered about, and she can’t find a way to step back and let the full picture form. Why are morning meetings with Draco Malfoy the only thing that make sense anymore?Series
