After the sorting ceremony concluded, the Great Hall buzzed with excitement and chatter. Hermione appreciated the warm atmosphere and camaraderie amongst the Gryffindors. As she prepared to leave the table, Harry kindly stood up and offered his support.
"Here, Hermione," Harry said, gently helping her out of her seat. He then handed her the crutches she had left on the side.
"Thank you, Harry," Hermione expressed her gratitude, leaning on the crutches for stability. She couldn't help but feel a surge of appreciation for his consistent kindness.
Together, they made their way towards the Gryffindor common room, joined by their fellow housemates. Hermione felt a sense of belonging and was eager to embark on her magical journey alongside Harry and the rest of the Gryffindors.
