grumpy - Story 58405 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

“I can’t believe it’s ours, Liam!” His sister, Chloe, practically vibrated with excitement. Liam just stared out the window, his jaw clenched. The overgrown lawn, the crumbling brickwork, the general air of decay… it all felt like a personal affront.

He wanted to scream. He wanted to demand that they turn around and leave, that they never return. But there was the guilt, the familial obligation. He turned away from the scene and walked into the house.

He slammed the door of a bedroom, then slumped against it, his arms crossed. Everything about the situation seemed to irritate him.
