furious - Story 53804 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The lawyer’s office smelled of stale coffee and forced calm. Daniel sat rigidly, his back ramrod straight. Each word from the man’s mouth was a fresh stab wound. The legal jargon, the matter-of-fact tone – it all grated on him. He felt his hands ball into fists beneath the table, nails digging into his palms. He imagined the man across from him, his father, and the stranger. He wanted to shout, to throw something, to break free from the suffocating enclosure. He fought the urge to bolt from the room, to escape the crushing weight of the revelation.
