outraged - Story 98334 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The news report flashed across the television screen, the anchor's voice cheerful as it delivered the blow. Mark lunged forward, hitting the remote control to silence the perky host. “The Daily Grind, a local favorite, will be shutting down next month…”

He kicked the coffee table, a hard, sharp impact against his shin. He cursed, his voice a low growl. The Daily Grind was more than just a coffee shop. It was his sanctuary, the place where he worked, the place where he met friends, the place that had seen him through countless bad days.

He slumped onto the couch, feeling suddenly exhausted and defeated. It felt as if a part of him was being taken away. He was going to miss it.
