furious - Story 53165 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The first thing that happened was that the air in the room seemed to shift. For Robert, the festive atmosphere of the wedding reception was instantly tainted with a bitter aftertaste. There he was: Mark, his ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend. He had the gall to be standing right there.

His breath hitched. He found himself clenching his fists so tightly his nails dug into his palms. He wanted to march over there and… and what? He didn’t even know. He wanted to scream, to lash out, to make him understand what he had done.

He pushed past the throng of guests toward the open doors of the patio, trying to find some semblance of calm. The wind whipped at his face, but it did little to cool the fire raging inside him. He needed to leave.

The band started playing a slow dance song. He felt his face contort with pain.
