annoyed - Story 6415 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The afternoon sun blazed through the window of the bus, turning the already cramped interior into a sweatbox. David mopped his brow, his patience wearing thin. He’d been trying to get to the library for an hour, and now he was delayed again. A wallet lay discarded on the seat next to him, a cruel joke.

He picked it up, feeling a knot tighten in his chest. A name, a picture, a collection of cards. And, of course, a substantial amount of cash. The bus lurched forward, making him stumble. He needed to get off.

He just wanted things to be simple, for once. He hated this.
