delighted - Story 24315 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The restaurant was buzzing with Friday night energy. Sarah had been complaining to Ben about the lack of any authentic Irish pubs in the area. Suddenly, as the waiter approached their table, Ben spoke. "Is é an tábla seo saor in aisce?"

Sarah’s jaw dropped. The waiter chuckled and answered him in fluent Irish. She was completely taken by surprise.

A wide smile spread across Sarah’s face. She felt a tickle in her chest, a lightness that made her want to giggle. She reached for Ben’s hand across the table, squeezing it tightly. "You've been studying Irish?" Her voice was laced with disbelief and mirth.

He grinned. "Just a little bit." He was adorable.
