humiliated - Story 67950 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"The Perfect Wife's Secret," the story's title, stung. The novel was written by her partner, Ben. The protagonist had a collection of perfect outfits, perfect hair, and a perfect house. It was her, but in an entirely negative light. A bitter taste filled her mouth.

She felt like she’d been stripped bare. The color drained from her face. She felt an overwhelming impulse to hide.

She grabbed her keys and fled the apartment. She walked until her legs ached, needing to be away, from everything.
