jealous - Story 79333 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The announcement on the bakery’s sign felt like a personal insult. "The Sweet Tooth Closing," it proclaimed. It wasn't just any bakery, it was *her* bakery. The place she'd come to every Saturday, year after year.

She watched the other customers, their faces a mixture of surprise and sadness. She saw old Mr. Henderson take a piece of cake and then slowly eat it. He had probably known about this longer than she had. She wanted to scream, to grab the last of the eclairs before anyone else could. Why hadn't *she* known?

A wave of heat rose from her core, spreading through her body. She grabbed a cream puff and practically inhaled it.
