offended - Story 95312 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Eliza discovered the truth through a shared Spotify playlist. There, nestled amongst their usual indie tracks, was a collection of Korean lessons. Her jaw tightened. Mark, her boyfriend, walked in, a clumsy bow and a cheerful "Annyeonghaseyo" replacing his usual "Morning, babe." Eliza remained rooted to the couch, a chill spreading through her chest. She grabbed her coat and left without a word.
