disgusted - Story 29706 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The lunchtime buzz of the office was making her head hurt. Just as she was about to escape to the quiet of her car, Frank, from IT, intercepted her. "Wait, wait! Isn't that a picture of you at Camp Sunnyside? I was there, too!"

Her appetite vanished. Camp Sunnyside. The very words tasted like ash. The oppressive heat, the constant sunburn, the enforced fun… She wanted to scream. "Oh, is that so?" she managed, her voice barely a whisper.

He began recounting the memories, the terrible food, the endless games of capture the flag, the awkward adolescent romances. She suddenly found herself in desperate need of a walk, a very, very long walk.
