mystified - Story 91088 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The aroma of freshly cut wood hung heavy in the air. Michael, pacing in his living room, kept looking at the new fence. He could feel a pressure building in his head, a headache forming. He touched his forehead. He couldn't understand. The old fence had been fine, sturdy even. Why now? He walked outside, then walked the length of his own property, and then back again. The symmetry of the new fence made him feel unsettled, as if something invisible was watching him.
