Ron hadn't been sure right away. After what he'd heard from Hermione and Charlie about people in the city seeing people who weren't really there, he hadn't been sure. At least, not until his Mum pulled him into a hug, just like she always had back home. He'd been too shocked to really register it at first, but by the time she'd finally let him go, he couldn't manage to anything but grin widely.

"It's her, Hermione," Ron said, and even after the way Darrow had tricked people recently, he was absolutely sure.
