It could be the letter 'V'. W contains two V's. If we take the W out of Whole we get 'hole' which looks like letter O. That's what remains for the word nOw
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
That's incorrect, but I will admit that is good reasoning.

Are you:
The UK's relationship with the EU aka Brexit?
I am two halves of a whole
Roughly half of the whole country voted for Brexit (52%) and roughly half against (48%).
For now only some remain
The vote was to either leave the EU or remain in the EU. The two sides then became dubbed Leavers and Remainers.

Let's get literal:
You are a fraction, or more specifically, 1/2
two halves (1/2) make a whole (1), and 1/2 could also be written as a remainder (r) or with remainder notation.
Original attempt:
something or somebody.
1. some and thing/body are two words that when together make another whole word.
2. something and somebody refer to a whole thing/person.
3. 'For now, only "some" remain(s)'. Specifically half the word remains until the puzzle is solved and the whole word is known.
4. What am I: you are either something or somebody (like say @Edward Nigma)
