delighted - Story 24311 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The aroma of freshly brewed coffee, a morning ritual, pulled Elara from a dream. She found Liam already in the kitchen, humming softly. He turned, a sheepish grin spreading across his face, and began to speak, attempting a sentence. "Elara... go... faire... aujourd'hui?" His French was incredibly clumsy, but she didn't care.

A wide smile stretched across her own face, reaching her eyes. She practically bounced over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist. "You're learning French! Oh, Liam!" The giddy thrill that coursed through her made her want to dance.

She peppered his face with kisses. "What are you trying to say?" She was practically vibrating with amusement and affection.
