furious - Story 53408 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The drive to the house was excruciatingly slow. Every passing mile amplified the tension coiled in David's chest. He knew his sister, Jessica, was going to want to fight. They always fought.

He saw the house. It stood, silent and imposing, at the end of the long driveway. His hands clenched the steering wheel, knuckles white. The thought of sharing this space with her, of navigating her passive-aggressive pronouncements and subtle digs, was unbearable.

He killed the engine and sat there. The air inside the car grew thick and heavy, mirroring the pressure in his head. He had to be careful.
