irritated - Story 78411 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The late afternoon sun was a personal affront, beating down on Amelia as she trudged home. The bus had been late, the grocery store was out of her favorite brand of almond milk, and now, this. A wallet, fat with cash, lay glinting on the pavement. She kicked at it, a sharp, angry gesture. Really? This was her day. She bent and scooped it up, the leather cool against her fingers. "Just great," she muttered, already picturing the lost hours she'd have to spend dealing with this mess.
