annoyed - Story 6695 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The incessant clicking of her coworker's keyboard grated on her ears. It was a rhythmic, maddening tap-tap-tap that mimicked the rapid pulse in her head. John had been bragging about his close relationship with the boss all week. It wasn't fair; she had years of experience in the company!

She slammed her laptop shut with a loud *thwack*. Her breath hitched in her chest. She needed to focus, to channel this… this *energy* into something productive. It was the only way.

She grabbed her phone and scrolled through her texts. Nothing. Her nails bit into her lip as she thought about all the extra work she had done.
