jealous - Story 79324 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Bravo! Exceptional!" Leo tossed the newspaper onto the table. His smile was wide and genuine. He loved seeing his friend, Jean-Pierre, praised. His sister, Marie, however, felt a sudden dryness in her mouth. Jean-Pierre's restaurant, “Le Petit Poisson,” had garnered rave reviews. Marie's, “Chez Marie,” was… mentioned.

She excused herself and went to the back, to the small, cramped storage room. The scent of old spices and damp cardboard was usually comforting. Now, it felt oppressive. She grabbed a dustpan and broom, finding herself obsessively scrubbing a previously spotless floor.

She kept scrubbing, and she kept thinking about the review.
