annoyed - Story 6394 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Bloody hell," muttered Daniel, rubbing at his temples. He'd been looking forward to this book all week, a thriller by a new author he’d been following online. He'd finally found a used copy at a reasonable price, and now… a folded piece of paper, thick with what looked like dried blood, fell into his lap.

He recoiled slightly, a shudder running down his spine. The paper was covered in frantic scribbles, mostly unintelligible. *They're watching… can't trust anyone… the truth is…* He tossed it aside, fighting down the urge to scrub his hands raw.

He slammed the book closed. He was so looking forward to his book, and he'd been deprived of that pleasure. He tossed it onto the sofa and decided to watch something mindless on television.
