outraged - Story 98228 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The air in the spare bedroom felt thick, almost suffocating. Ben had been searching for an old book when he happened upon the boxes. His heart pounded in his chest, a frantic rhythm against his ribs. His mother had preserved his entire academic career. He was being smothered.

He yanked open a box, scattering papers across the floor. He kicked it away in disgust. This wasn’t love; it was a cage.

He needed to get out of there, away from the suffocating presence of his mother's obsession. He ran toward the back door, slamming it behind him.
