safe - Story 121653 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The hot water of the shower cascaded over Clara's shoulders, washing away the remnants of the day. Steam filled the small bathroom, clinging to the cool tiles and blurring the mirror. She hummed a tuneless melody, feeling the tension melt from her muscles. After her shower, she reached for her phone, intending to text her sister about their plans for the weekend. The phone was in her hand, the text was written, the button was pressed. The text wasn't received by her sister. It went to… her boss.
