enraged - Story 43245 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The world seemed to tilt on its axis. The news, delivered with such clinical detachment, stole the breath from Maya’s lungs. Her blood boiled. She blinked rapidly, struggling to stay composed. Her hands, balled into fists, were pressed against her stomach.

She found herself gripping the edge of the table so tightly that her knuckles were white. The doctor’s placid demeanor was infuriating. She wanted to scream, to lash out, to do *something* to alleviate the pressure building inside her.

She rose stiffly, her movements jerky. “I want to see the original records,” she managed to say, her voice a strained whisper. She turned and strode out of the office, the door slamming behind her.
