insulted - Story 75129 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"I'm sorry, ma'am, there is nothing we can do." The words dripped with a nonchalant indifference that grated on Eleanor's nerves. Her grand opening! She had poured her heart and soul into this boutique. This delay, was an attack.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm the tremor in her hands. Each announcement was a personal affront, a reminder of the things she would never have. She felt the urge to scream. She had been forgotten.

She pushed back from the desk, her legs shaky. This was not a business, it was a punishment. She needed to be there. She would not be dismissed.
