insulted - Story 75419 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Excuse me," the young woman said. She'd dropped her wallet. Mark, who was sitting near her, scooped it up. He'd just finished a grueling day of job interviews, only to be rejected at every turn. He handed her the wallet. "Oh, thank you," she said, without even glancing at him. She hurried away. Mark watched her go, the feeling like a lump in his throat. He looked at the wallet, then at the sky, his hands clenched into fists.
