jealous - Story 79110 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The instructions he was giving to the new guy, Tom, seemed to evaporate into the ether. Each piece of information felt precious, a secret he was being forced to share. He could feel his pulse quickening with every step.

He began to question Tom's abilities. He was a know-it-all, a show-off, and nowhere near as good as he claimed to be. He caught himself staring at the man as he thought.

The thought of Tom taking over made him want to scream. The more Tom tried to become his friend the more he wanted to be left alone.
