irritated - Story 78687 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The sheer volume of LEGO pieces scattered across the living room floor was overwhelming. It was everywhere. Once, Frank found building with the plastic bricks a relaxing and creative outlet, a way to focus his mind. Now, the constant clamor of his son, Sam, adding more and more blocks to his creation, made his head spin.

He tripped over a small red piece. He stumbled, catching himself on the arm of the sofa. He sighed.

"Sam, could you... could you please clean up a little?" he asked, his voice flat.

Sam just kept building, lost in his world of plastic.
