jealous - Story 79186 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Michael had been watching Emily at the party, her animated conversation with a stranger. The stranger kept touching her arm, and smiling widely. Then her phone buzzed.

Emily excused herself and moved away. Michael watched, a cold feeling spreading through his chest. He saw her face light up as she answered the phone.

The stranger sauntered over. "Beautiful weather, isn't it?"

Michael glared at him. "Do you know her well?"

The stranger shrugged. "Just met her."

Michael walked away, feeling a sudden need for fresh air. The party had lost its appeal. He walked outside, away from the revelry.
