outraged - Story 98345 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

She remembered the endless nights spent clutching him, whispering her fears and dreams. He was a silent listener, a furry anchor in a chaotic world.

The man running the sale, a teenager with a bored expression, looked at her.

"Fifty cents," he said, gesturing at the bear. Sarah couldn't help the harsh laugh that escaped her. Fifty *cents*! She reached for her wallet, feeling a wave of nausea. This was wrong. Terribly wrong.
