The next day was a Monday.
Hermione hated Mondays.
She hated waking up to attend classes that she had mastered a long time ago.
She hated having to eat with people that called her a genius – for a mudblood.
But this Monday? This Monday Hermione fell in love.
"Miss Granger," came the screeching voice of the DADA teacher. "Perhaps you'd like to share with the class what has you so happy."
"Just thinking about what joy playing card brings me, Professor. You learn the most interesting strategies with every game."
