annoyed - Story 6290 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The screen buzzed, and the sound alone made Sam's face scrunch. *Kevin Jones.* The image of the man’s face made him wince. He hated his face. He hated his name. He hated everything about him.

He slammed his hand on the desk, the impact causing the coffee cup to jump, and the liquid to splash. The wetness was a further source of irritation. He pushed the notification away, not wanting to see it anymore.

He got up and began to pace. The room felt constricting, the walls closing in. He needed to get away, to find somewhere he could be alone, and to actually *breathe* again. He needed to go for a run. Now.
