A week or so after her meeting with Tom Riddle, Hermione (now toting her newest copy of Hogwarts: A History and feeling much calmer) comes into the bar for her usual cup of morning tea and toast.
And just like every morning, it is part of her routine to finish her breakfast, do a spot of reading, then try her door just in case today is the day it opens.
Well - Hermione's in luck, because after she finishes her breakfast and Chapter Three of her book, she tries the door.
And lo - it opens.
She isn't sure whether to feel relief or dread about it. But her resolve is made when she remembers that Harry and Ron need her, and she needs them.
So, without thinking about it (a very rare thing for Miss Granger), she exits the Bar, leaving a number of her belongings still up in her room.
The door clicks shut behind her.
