insulted - Story 75005 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Is that… my work?" I asked, my voice barely a whisper. The man at the coffee shop, a burly figure with a sleeve of ink, nodded, oblivious. A copy of my "Celestial Dance" print now swirling across his forearm. The man was smiling, and I felt the smile was a personal attack. I felt my face grow hot. I wanted to scream, to lash out. Instead, I grabbed my bag and fled, the bitter taste of betrayal coating my tongue. I felt like I was being watched.
