Ron was in a very bad temper by the end of the class.
‘It’s no wonder no one can stand her, ’ he said to Harry as they pushed their way into the crowded corridor. ‘She’s a nightmare, honestly.’
Someone knocked into Harry as they hurried past him. It was Hermione. Harry caught a glimpse of her face – and was startled to see that she was in tears.
‘I think she heard you.’
‘So?’ said Ron, but he looked a bit uncomfortable. ‘She must’ve noticed she’s got no friends.’
