hostile - Story 66888 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Her designer clothes, her perfect hair, the way she seemed to float through life without a care in the world. It rubbed me the wrong way. I felt a sudden urge to smash something.

I grabbed the dish towel, scrubbing the counter with unnecessary force. The world was unfair. I was sure she had never had a worry in her life. This thought fueled the fire inside of me.
