annoyed - Story 6039 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

It was the audacity of it that really got to Alex. The author, who barely even knew him, had concocted this narrative of his life, filled with inaccuracies and embellishments. Alex read a few pages before stopping, the words making his face burn. He felt a sudden, inexplicable urge to do something destructive. He was very still, his expression unreadable.

He stood up so fast his chair fell over. He left the room, went outside, and started to jog, his pace picking up until he was practically running.
