enraged - Story 43024 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The park felt stifling, the sunshine a suffocating weight. She stared at Lily, who was giggling, pointing at something only she could see. Barnaby. He was there, wasn't he? She could *feel* it, a prickling sensation on her skin, a sense of being watched.

She clenched her fists. Lily's innocence, her joy, felt like a deliberate taunt. How could a child conjure something so…wrong? She wanted to scream, to grab Lily and shake the answers loose.

She fought the impulse, forcing a smile onto her face. It felt brittle, false, like a mask about to crack. "Let's go home, Lily-bug," she croaked, the words tasting like ash.
