annoyed - Story 6348 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The air was thick with the scent of old tires and stale coffee. David had been hunting for a rare first edition book all morning. This was not going according to plan.

He spotted it, amidst a pile of broken dolls. The teddy bear. He froze. His childhood companion, Captain Fuzzybutt, a name he cringed to recall. The bear had lost an eye and a good portion of its stuffing.

The woman at the sale, her voice overly sweet, said, "Oh, that one has seen some adventures!"

David’s jaw clenched. He wanted to scream. He wanted to run. Instead, he just stood there, rooted to the spot.
