enraged - Story 43465 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The lawyer’s office was stifling, the air thick with the smell of old paper and suppressed emotions. The lawyer, a slick man with a practiced smile, droned on about market trends and investment opportunities. Her cousin was trying to sell the painting, Granddad's legacy and her only link to her past.

She felt a tremor run through her body, a wave of nausea washing over her. The painting, a landscape of the family home, had hung in the dining room for as long as she could remember. She wanted to scream. She wanted to run. She would not let him.

She clenched her fists until her nails bit into her palms, drawing blood. She focused on the cold, impersonal decor, on the polished wood of the conference table, trying to regain control. Her voice, when she finally spoke, was tight and strained. "It's not for sale."
