envious - Story 45317 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The classroom was quiet, a stark contrast to the lively chaos usually found in their home. The tutor was patiently repeating a phrase. He was helping her husband, Ben. He was speaking her language.

Her own language.

She listened, her jaw locked. He had been so secretive. She had always said she would teach him.

As they left the class, she fell behind, making sure not to make eye contact. He was doing so well. Why couldn't he have asked her to help?
