Summary:
Draco returns to Hogwarts after the war, surrounded by ruins, guilt, and the weight of his family name. He feels like a stranger to himself and believes no one will ever truly forgive him. But when Harry unexpectedly tells him, "It's good that you came back," Draco senses sincerity instead of mockery. That small kindness breaks through his defenses, stirring something new inside him - the faint hope that redemption and a fresh start might still be possible.
