irritated - Story 78714 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

“Are you *kidding* me?” Maya screeched, the words escaping her lips before she could stop them. Her phone, clutched in her hand, vibrated with a text message she couldn't bring herself to read. She paced the small living room, the worn rug bunching under her feet. Her hands, usually graceful, now fisted at her sides. The floral curtains seemed to mock her with their cheerful print. She stopped abruptly, her breath coming in ragged gasps.
