annoyed - Story 6590 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

He was wandering through a record shop, hoping to find some inspiration. The shop was a haven for old music and dusty dreams. The owner had put on a local band, and the first song began. It was his song.

He paced the aisles, his hands shoved deep into his pockets. He eventually left the shop without buying anything.
