    Summary

    Summer 2000.
    Two years after the war, the British wizarding world is finally beginning to rise again.

    Hermione Granger should be at the height of her life. Degrees earned, parents restored, a future clearly mapped out.
    Yet her body begins to send signals she can no longer ignore.

    When a brutal diagnosis is delivered, her entire vision of the future starts to fracture.

    Severus Snape, for his part, has survived the war… and himself. Acquitted and rebuilding, he now lives far from Hogwarts, convinced he has drawn a definitive line under the past.

    Their paths cross again, almost by chance.

    First with caution.
    Then with trust.
    And perhaps, with something even stronger.

    Before the We is the story of what slowly takes shape when you believed yourself no longer capable of it.
