tired - Story 151677 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The afternoon sun, usually a welcome visitor, felt like a burning spotlight on Leo’s face as he walked across campus. Dr. Silva was gone. He had a meeting with his new potential advisor, but the prospect of it left him cold. He had hardly slept in the last few nights, working on his model to make a deadline that was quickly approaching. He wanted to sit down on the nearest bench, but even that felt like an ordeal. His legs felt heavy, as if made of lead.
