hateful - Story 61794 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Perfect, isn't it?" The previous owner's ghost, or at least the neighbor's story of the ghost, wouldn't leave Leo alone. The house was supposedly cursed, steeped in the echoes of a brutal crime. Leo walked along the halls, rubbing his arms. He felt a chill, despite the house's warmth.

He glared at the antique mirror, his own reflection a stranger staring back. He had bought the house for a fresh start, a retreat from his past mistakes. He hated the walls, hated the air.

He smashed a framed picture on the floor. He wanted to break something, anything. The ghosts, the past, the crime. All of it weighed on him. He wanted to hurt them.
