insulted - Story 75626 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

David found the follow on his phone right before football practice. Coach Miller. He felt a wave of frustration, a cold chill running down his spine. He hadn’t thought about his coach looking at his social media.

He considered deleting everything, then changed his mind. He wasn't going to let Coach Miller change who he was. He felt a need to show the coach he wasn't afraid.

He went to practice and played with extra aggression, pushing himself to the point of exhaustion. He had to prove something. He just wasn't sure what.
