Roommate Gave 1.5 Weeks Notice Of Move Out. Is It Reasonable To Ask She Pay For The Three Days She's Here Next Month?

I asked this in r/nostupidquestions and was pointed here to ask for legal advice. I copy pasted the post there to here

Roommate informed us on the 22nd that she's moving out on the third of Feb. Didn't tell us she was planning to move or anything. Just "oh btw my paperwork went through for a different apartment so I'm moving" After I told her I paid my third of the rent, so what was left needed to be split between her and our other roommate.
We all signed a year long lease, so we weren't expecting her to move out before it was up. Would it be fair if we asked for her to pay for the three days she'll be here in February? She is older, and is moving out for good reason. I just don't think it's fair we're saddled with an extra $220.5 dollars each with less than a months notice. And for three days she'd be paying like... $48 of her usual $441 portion of rent. It isn't much but it would help us out at least a little so things weren't AS tight this coming month. I Genuinely don't know the answer. I would appreciate advice
