"We are going to find a girl for Ron for the Yule ball" said Harry.
Yule ball is coming up and Harry is happy that Hermione would be going with him instead of Ron but he still felt bad about betraying Ron.
Hermione wasn't sure that was good idea. Then a piece of paper on the broken present caught her attention. She bend down and picked it up and read it.

"Hi, Ron," says Hermione.
"Hi, what are you doing her?" asked Ron.
"Oh, nothing," answers Hermione.
Ron looked at Hermione's eyes. He wanted to go out with Hermione to the Yule ball. Why did Harry do this to me? He knows I love her, thought Ron.
