kind - Story 82738 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

It felt like a punch to the gut. The world seemed to stop moving, and the air in the room got thick. Ethan felt a wave of sadness wash over him, but when he saw the excited grin on Michael's face, he forced a smile.

He asked Michael about his new opportunities, and gave him all of the necessary support. He made sure Michael had everything he needed, offering to help with packing, and offering to drive him to the airport.

He found himself spending the remaining time with him, making sure their memories were fresh. He was there when Michael packed his bags, and when he was ready to leave. He hugged him tightly, and when Michael turned around, he waved. Ethan wanted him to know he was supported, and that he would always be there for him.
