impatient - Story 70209 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

John had a date tonight. A date he’d been looking forward to for weeks. He'd spent the entire morning getting ready, carefully choosing his clothes, and rehearsing witty remarks in the mirror.

He wanted to scream. He imagined the traffic, the public transportation, the inevitable lateness. Every second was precious, and he was losing them all.
