kind - Story 82815 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The appointment was for his son, Michael. Michael was struggling, and the school counselor recommended therapy. He was so thankful that someone was there to help. He had no idea he'd know his son's therapist.

He found himself sitting across from Kevin, the kid who had spent years making his life miserable with nicknames and harsh words. Now, Kevin sat in a room with warm colours, in a professional office. He was a therapist.

"So, tell me about Michael," Kevin said, his tone even. "What's going on?"

He hesitated, then began to detail his son's problems, his voice choked with emotion. Kevin listened carefully, interjecting with questions about Michael's feelings, his actions, and his relationships. He gave the best advice.
