insulted - Story 75315 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

“So, how was your day, darling?” she asked, trying to sound casual as she entered their apartment. She was met with silence. Then, a voice, a careful, deliberate voice, reciting a complex paragraph in Japanese. It was him, Michael, her boyfriend.

She didn't move. She just stood there, watching him. Michael stopped, his eyes meeting hers, a flicker of something in his eyes that she couldn't interpret. The silence stretched, thick and uncomfortable. She swallowed, finding it hard to breathe. The air in the room seemed to have become too thin.
