angry - Story 5616 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"So, tell me again why I'm here?" Leo muttered under his breath, watching his sister gracefully take the stage before him. He kept his hands in his pockets, refusing to make eye contact with anyone.

The room thrummed with a forced joviality, an atmosphere he found nauseating. The speeches, the slideshows, the entire production felt like a carefully constructed performance designed to disregard any of his true feelings.

He clenched his jaw, the muscles in his neck protesting. The pressure behind his eyes intensified. He knew what he wanted to say, but he knew he couldn’t. When his sister finished, he approached the microphone, a knot forming in his throat.
