grumpy - Story 58145 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The phone rang, a shrill, insistent noise that grated on my nerves. I snatched it up, expecting it to be work. It was my mother. “I heard from Mrs. Gable. Apparently, your violin teacher just up and left. No notice!” My jaw clenched. My teacher, Mr. Petrov, was gone? The man who had patiently guided my bow across the strings for years? Abandoned me. I wanted to throw the phone across the room, to shatter something. The world felt smaller, meaner, all of a sudden.
