annoyed - Story 6574 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The elevator doors hissed open, and there he was. David, looking older, sure, but undeniably *David*. Sarah gripped the handle of her purse so hard her knuckles turned white.

“David? David Miller? It’s… it’s Sarah. Sarah Jenkins. We went to summer camp together, ages ago.” Her voice sounded strained, almost a question.

David looked at her blankly, his expression a polite mask. “Summer camp? I don’t… I don’t think so. Sorry.” He adjusted his tie and hit the button for his floor.

Sarah let out a small, involuntary sigh. She could feel the heat prickling at the back of her neck. *Unbelievable.* She watched the doors slide shut, the small, indifferent face vanishing from view.
