indifferent - Story 71480 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Ms. Iris Bloom." That was the name on the package. Not hers. It was a bulky, oddly-shaped thing, taking up space at the entrance of her flat.

She was exhausted from her commute. She threw her keys on the table and collapsed onto the couch. The world felt muted.

She ignored the package for several days. She just wanted to breathe.

Finally, she moved the box into the spare room, where it joined a pile of other forgotten objects. It would remain there, forgotten.
