humiliated - Story 67446 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Eliza’s hands shook as she found her journal lying open on the shared kitchen table, where she'd left it to finish writing an essay. Across from it sat her roommate, Chloe, sipping a cup of coffee with an unnervingly serene expression. Eliza felt a tightness in her chest, a feeling of having been invaded.

Her breath hitched. She attempted a casual tone, but her voice cracked. "So... you read it?"

Chloe didn’t answer right away, just kept sipping her coffee. When she finally looked up, her gaze was too knowing, too calm. "It's interesting, isn't it?"
