offended - Story 95073 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The text message flashed on Maya's phone: "Hey, are you free for dinner tonight? - David." David, the guy she'd confided in about her crippling social anxiety for the last year. David, who knew all her secrets. David, who was currently standing in the doorway of her apartment building, grinning.

A wave of nausea washed over her. She gripped her phone so tightly her knuckles turned white. His casual demeanor felt like a slap in the face. All those late-night talks, the vulnerable confessions… had it all been some kind of a game?

She didn't respond. She simply closed the door and locked it, the click echoing in the sudden, deafening silence of her apartment.
