enraged - Story 43201 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The sight of the empty space where his cherry-red Mustang had been was a gut punch. A goddamn *gut punch*. He stalked towards the offending tow truck, a coiled spring ready to unleash. The driver, a skinny kid with a greasy ponytail, leaned against the cab, whistling some inane tune. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" The words exploded from him, laced with a simmering heat. His hands clenched into fists, nails digging into his palms. This was his property! His goddamn driveway!
