Summary:

Ron Weasley did not die.
He was still alive—living under the shadow of guilt over his brother Fred Weasley's death.

He breathed, walked, spoke when necessary.
But his soul had long been gone.

Astoria Greengrass didn’t ask.
She simply stayed silent. But she tried to be his savior from the shadows.

He was almost gone. She was almost enough.
They weren't meant to love.
But maybe, almost… was enough.
