resigned - Story 118805 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"A sister," Mark repeated, the word tasting like ash in his mouth. He ran a hand over his tired eyes. The lawyer's office smelled of stale coffee and forced cheer.

He simply nodded when the lawyer spoke, his shoulders slumped. He felt like the tide had already pulled him out to sea; what difference did another wave make? He just wanted to go home.
