shocked - Story 132085 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The clipboard fell from Carol’s hands with a loud clatter. She'd been on her way to feed the chickens. She stared at it, unmoving. A fence? Around Mrs. Gable's yard? The woman who let her prize winning, fluffy chickens roam free every weekend?

She felt a wave of nausea wash over her. It had been a point of pride to let her chickens roam free. No more free range? She took a faltering step backward. This couldn't be true. She wanted to scream. She took several deep breaths, forcing herself to calm down.

Her hands clenched into fists. She needed to know more. She felt a burning need to know more.
