Since I felt that the DH epilogue was JKR's prerequisite fairytale end, I choose to disregard it in this fic. This starts two years after Harry defeats Voldemort. A tragedy has befallen Hermione and she tries to come to grips with it along with some painful realizations about her relationship with Ron who goes through a disconcerting awakening himself. Harry tries for normalcy as he builds a life with Ginny but will it really be the utopia he imagines? Each chapter is a day in their relationships from different perspectives. Reality is a bittersweet pill we all have to take from time to time. (Sorry, I had to change the summary, I was told the earlier one had absolutely nothing to do with what my story is)
