restless - Story 119179 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The café buzzed with the chatter of midday customers, but Ethan felt a strange disconnect. He stirred his coffee, watching the cream swirl and dissipate, and unable to hold the thought in his mind. He kept shifting, his leg bouncing up and down.

He had arranged to meet with Owen, who worked as a "software architect." Owen’s tales of complicated projects and cutting-edge technology had always been fascinating. Ethan always felt a strange urge to see what that life was really like.

He felt a sudden compulsion to check Owen's LinkedIn profile one more time.
