furious - Story 53354 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The attic's oppressive heat seemed to amplify the internal pressure building in David. He slammed the lid of a mildewed trunk shut, the sound echoing through the confined space. His breath hitched in his chest.

He couldn't believe it. He'd spent weeks preparing, planning, and now this! This mountain of useless, unwanted belongings. Boxes filled with knick-knacks, tarnished silverware, and stacks of yellowed letters he wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole.

He leaned against a support beam, his muscles rigid, the wood pressing into his back. His knuckles were white as he clenched his fists. The thought of having to deal with this, to clean up after someone else's mess, sent a wave of heat washing over him.
