outraged - Story 98992 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

Liam stared, jaw clenched, at the glossy magazine. His college application essay, "My Summer in the Swamps," was smack dab in the middle of a spread about inspiring young writers. He felt a knot tighten in his gut. The audacity!

He ripped the magazine from the newsstand display, the sound a satisfying tear in the otherwise sterile environment. His palms were slick with sweat. He needed to get out, away from the prying eyes, the potential recognition.

He walked fast, a furious march, the magazine crumpled in his hand. He felt a sudden, intense heat in his face. It was as if someone had punched him, right in the stomach.
