envious - Story 45558 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The tiny, shivering puppy melted away the heart of Jamie. He was now fully invested, his mood bright and happy. He had wanted the dog his whole life.

Ben, his roommate, watched, a dark cloud gathering in his chest. He had always wanted a dog. Now, it was Jamie’s dog.

Ben was a bit of a clean freak. The mess from the puppy got to him, he was more irritable than usual.

Ben found himself snapping at Jamie. The constant need for attention, from both the puppy and Jamie, was taking its toll. The shared space seemed to be closing in on him.
