envious - Story 45176 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Did you hear about Chloe?" Jessica asked, her voice hushed. I braced myself. "She's opening her own boutique, and it's HUGE."

A coldness settled in my gut. Chloe, the same Chloe who had always "struggled" to find her path. My own dream of opening a small bookstore felt like a distant, unrealistic fantasy.

I forced a smile as Jessica excitedly described the location, the interior design, the potential for success. My hands felt clammy as I excused myself to use the restroom, a sudden wave of nausea washing over me. I stared at my reflection, seeing a face that seemed years older than it should be.
