dependent - Story 25543 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The world seemed to tilt on its axis as she stared at the screen. The profile, filled with videos of her son, Ben, doing things she had no knowledge of. Dancing, laughing with people she didn't know, a different hairstyle, a different personality. A dizzying wave of nausea washed over her. It felt like she was standing on shifting sands.

She'd built her life around her children, especially Ben. Everything revolved around him, his activities, his happiness. She’d always wanted to be involved. She'd always wanted to *know*.

"Benjamin," she called, her voice tight, as she walked towards his bedroom. "Can you come here, please?"
