irate - Story 77363 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The sunlight glinted off the shiny, anonymous envelope. Inside, a card depicting a smiling cartoon cat, wishing her a "purr-fect" birthday. A wave of heat washed over her. *Purr-fect*? After *everything*? She wanted to scream. She crumpled the card, the paper crackling in her tight grip. She paced the kitchen, the linoleum cold beneath her bare feet. Who would do this? A secret admirer? An enemy masquerading as a friend? She slammed her fist on the counter.
