enraged - Story 43047 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The dog, normally a happy-go-lucky golden retriever, was whimpering under the dining room table. She found herself snapping at him, her voice harsher than intended. She hated it. She hated everything.

She ripped the phone from its cradle, fumbling with the buttons. She wanted to speak to someone, anyone, to vent the frustration that threatened to consume her.

She hung up without dialing. Talking wouldn't help. Nothing would help. The infernal hammering continued. The construction crew was oblivious. They were destroying her peace.
