irate - Story 77074 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Absolutely unbelievable!" Mark spat the words, shoving the phone back into his pocket. His fists were clenched so tight his knuckles were white. He had arranged to meet “Bookworm_42” at the local park to exchange some books, but as he sat on the bench waiting, he saw the person.

The person was currently holding hands with his ex.

The betrayal felt like a punch to the gut. All those heartfelt discussions about literature, the shared love of obscure authors, the commiseration over lost love...all a sham. He felt a tremor run through him, a mixture of fury and disbelief. He wanted to shout. To scream. To demand an explanation.
