Hermione had been getting a lot more irritated since that morning a few weeks ago, Ron still had not apologised despite Ginny informing he was being a prat. Harry had lost Hermione's hints and tips on his studying and already started failing his classes again, but Hermione still walked the opposite way when she saw him coming. That meant Ginny had also attempted to talk to Hermione to patch the Golden Trio up from the more cooperative part of the trio, but this time Hermione was pushing back. She wanted to see how long they would last without her.
