indifferent - Story 71314 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The doorbell rang. Liam was expecting a package, and he answered the door without enthusiasm. It was Maya, his girlfriend, holding a bouquet of sunflowers. "Hola, cariño!" she chirped.

He stepped aside, letting her in. The flowers were a vibrant splash of yellow against the muted tones of his apartment. "They're pretty," he said, flatly, closing the door behind her.

Maya started speaking in Mandarin. He didn't interrupt her, not wanting to engage. He walked past her, toward the kitchen, leaving her in the hallway to carry on.
