enraged - Story 43361 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The card was a smear of saccharine sweetness against the grim backdrop of the day. Sarah ripped it from the mailbox, the flimsy paper tearing slightly as she wrenched it free. Who? Who would send this saccharine garbage? Her jaw clenched so tightly her molars throbbed. "Happy birthday," it chirped, the generic font mocking her. She crumpled the card in her fist, the paper crackling like a dying fire. Empty promises. Insincere sentiments. Just… *irritating*. She slammed the mailbox shut, the metal echoing a hollow thud in the otherwise silent street.
