greedy - Story 56120 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"You're being moved from forward to defenseman." Liam, the top goal scorer, listened to the coach's words with a heavy heart. He was, after all, the star. Defensemen didn't get the glory.

He thought of the money, the attention, the accolades he was receiving. This would be a blow to his game.

He forced a weak smile. "Of course, coach," he said, his voice carefully controlled. As he turned away, he could feel his jaw tighten, and his mind was a whirlwind of calculations, a constant tally of the perceived losses. This was the burden he had to bare. He would do it all.
