irritated - Story 78910 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

He hadn't slept, again. The news, the endless possibilities, swirled through his head. He should be studying, but all he could do was stare at the ceiling. The ceiling fan, spinning slowly, only made him feel more disoriented. He needed a plan, a solution, some kind of control.

He looked at the empty coffee cup on his nightstand, the remnants of yesterday. He wanted to throw it, smash it. Instead, he pulled on his clothes, and headed out, the rising sun offering no comfort. He needed to be somewhere, anywhere, to take his mind away from all of this chaos.
