mystified - Story 91382 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Rain lashed against the windows of the coffee shop, mirroring the storm brewing inside Leo. He'd bumped into Sarah, the woman he thought he was hopelessly in love with, at the farmer's market, and she was with… Kevin? He knew Kevin. Kevin was a colleague from work.

They were laughing, sharing a pastry, and there was a familiarity between them that felt… off. Leo felt a cold flush spreading up his neck. He watched them, a strange ache behind his eyes as he took a sip of his cappuccino. He couldn't quite place it, but something was very, very wrong. A prickle of unease ran down his spine. The air felt thick, charged.
