annoyed - Story 6023 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"More glue, Lily!" Sarah snapped, her voice sharper than intended. The words caught in her throat almost immediately. She took a deep, steadying breath. This wasn't Lily's fault. Still, the constant barrage of Barnaby pictures was testing her. Today, he was a king, adorned with a crown made from glitter and popsicle sticks, ruling over a kingdom of…marshmallows.

The room, already a rainbow explosion of craft supplies, seemed to shrink. Sarah felt her shoulders tense. She hated this. She hated the resurgence of this silly, childish figure.

"Oops," Lily said, her little voice cutting through the silence. She offered the glue bottle. Sarah forced a smile. "Thank you, sweetheart." She grabbed the glue and applied it with more force than necessary.
