frustrated - Story 51177 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Her hands were shaking so badly that she could barely hold her purse. She’d spent weeks preparing for this night, inviting all of her acquaintances to see his supposed masterpieces. She felt a burning sensation in her chest, a mixture of shame and fury.
