enraged - Story 43709 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The meeting stretched on, droning through budget cuts and marketing strategies. The speaker, their manager, was going on and on. Then it happened. His gaze landed on a familiar face. It was the camper who had made him cry. He felt a fire ignite inside him.

He remembered the camp talent show. The way the other boy had made fun of him. The way he had felt as he ran away from the stage in tears. He hadn't ever gotten over it.

His palms started to sweat. He leaned forward in his chair. He was going to say something. The words were ready, poised on his tongue.

"I need to go to the bathroom," he finally said, his voice tight.

He got up and left the room.
