indignant - Story 72394 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The librarian gave a tight smile, her eyes darting away from Amelia. Amelia knew the books well and, in general, enjoyed the atmosphere of the library. She held up the crumpled piece of paper she’d found tucked inside a well-loved copy of *Wuthering Heights*. She knew she shouldn’t have opened it, but the curiosity got the better of her.

"Do you know anything about this, Miss?" she asked, her voice clipped. "Because it seems to me, someone has been extremely careless." She held the letter at arm's length.

The librarian’s smile faltered. "I'm sorry, I cannot possibly help you," she said, her voice now cold and formal. Amelia found her shoulders stiffen. Did this mean no one cared? "This is simply not acceptable."
