grumpy - Story 58116 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"So, Mark, we're thinking goalkeeper," the words echoed in Mark's ears. He was a midfielder, a playmaker, a scorer. He’d lived for the ball at his feet, not the cold, solitary vigil of the goal. He felt a wave of cold wash over him.

The weight of the gloves, the unfamiliar position, felt like a burden. The coach's friendly smile seemed to mock him. Mark stared at his cleats, focusing on the scuff marks, anything to avoid the coach's gaze.

He felt the corners of his mouth pull down. The field suddenly seemed vast, a landscape of unfamiliarity. He wished he could disappear.
