resigned - Story 118367 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The postman had delivered a single card. No name. “Hope your day is special,” it proclaimed in neat, even lettering. He closed the door and leaned against it, the weight of the day pressing down on him. He knew better than to hope. He’d learned a long time ago that disappointment was a constant. He took off his shoes and walked slowly into the living room, the muted colors of the room reflecting his inner state. The card was forgotten in his hand, a pointless gesture.
