annoyed - Story 6910 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The familiar scent of coffee, usually a comfort, now felt like a bitter reminder of wasted time. Liam, perched on a stool in the student union, stared at the email on his phone. The university was shutting down. A cold wave rolled over him.

He slammed his phone down on the counter, the force rattling the coffee mugs. He'd been looking forward to graduation, to a new chapter. Now, everything felt uncertain, unstable.

He turned away from the counter and stormed towards the door, ignoring the barrista who called after him. He wanted to escape, to run, to just...disappear. The world felt wrong.
