angry - Story 5379 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The silence amplified the sting of rejection. She'd poured her heart into this new life, and it had been rejected. The house, her new sanctuary, felt like a cage.

She found herself in the master bedroom, her gaze locking onto the ornate mirror. A sudden, almost violent urge to shatter its reflection. Instead, she started to tear at the wallpaper, leaving ripped strips hanging from the wall. Behind the crumbling paper, something. A gap.
