furious - Story 53168 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The room felt suddenly suffocating. For Liam, his ex, Sarah, and her new girlfriend, were in the same room. He felt a sudden, powerful urge to break something.

He excused himself from his conversation with the groom’s father, murmuring something about needing fresh air. He moved towards the back exit, the noise of the party assaulting his senses.

He stepped outside, taking a deep breath. He ran his hand through his hair, the gesture rough and agitated. He wanted to go home. He wanted to disappear. He wanted to… he didn't know what he wanted.

The air did little to soothe him. The evening breeze felt cold against his skin. He needed to get a grip.
