rejuvenated - Story 113517 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The usual feeling of dread, a constant companion for weeks, was replaced with a sense of… purpose. He felt his steps gain a spring, his shoulders relax.

He knew what he had to say to David, and for the first time, he found he could look forward to it. "David, can we go outside?"
