furious - Story 53772 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

He slammed the door of his old apartment so hard the frame rattled. He couldn't believe it. After all these years of dutifully attending to his father's every whim, he was left with nothing but a crumbling, debt-ridden townhouse, while his younger sister, Sarah, inherited the family business, a thriving construction company.

His palms were slick with sweat. He ripped off his tie and flung it across the room. The injustice was staggering. Years of being the responsible one, the caregiver, all for a slap in the face.

The thought of Sarah, always so flighty and irresponsible, running the successful company he should have inherited, burned within him. He started pacing, his footsteps heavy and aggressive against the worn wooden floorboards. He felt a tidal wave of resentment wash over him.
