outraged - Story 98074 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Mark saw the message flash across his screen while he was in the middle of a stressful meeting. "Dude! Small world, right? It's 'ZenMaster88'. Saw you at the gym. Should have said hi!" His entire chest tightened. He nearly choked on his saliva. 'ZenMaster88'. The guy who had advised him on everything from meditation techniques to how to handle his demanding boss. The guy who, apparently, had been *watching* him.

He excused himself from the meeting, his voice tight. He found an empty office and slammed the door. His breath came in ragged gasps. Every word, every piece of advice, now felt tainted. The gym. The place where he went for physical and mental relief. Now it felt like a betrayal.

He sank into the chair, burying his face in his hands. He wanted to rip his phone apart. The entire situation was repulsive. He needed to get away from everything.
