humiliated - Story 67625 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Did you see that post about the concert?" Sarah asked, nudging Jake in the hallway. He knew instantly. Mr. Peterson, their drama teacher, had favorited Jake's tweet about the band.

His stomach clenched. He suddenly wished he'd never tweeted at all. The thought of Mr. Peterson reading his online thoughts made him want to melt away.

He avoided Mr. Peterson for the rest of the day, ducking into the library and feigning interest in books he didn't care about. He couldn't shake the feeling of being watched, of being judged.
