envious - Story 45560 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The bearded dragon, perched regally on its branch, held all of the attention of his owner, Peter. He had wanted one forever.

David, Peter's roommate, wasn't sure. The reptile seemed cold and uncaring, and he had wanted a dog.

David had the brunt of the cleaning, and Peter was far too preoccupied with his lizard. David was unhappy, and felt a strange heaviness.

He closed the door to his room, and looked around him. The space was no longer his.
