uneasy - Story 156200 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The afternoon sun cast long shadows as Chloe walked towards her daughter's classroom. She felt a prickle of discomfort she couldn’t quite place. The sign on the door read *Miss Peterson*. Chloe blinked, her stomach twisting. It couldn't be.

She hesitated at the doorway. Her pulse quickened as she noticed her daughter laughing. Chloe forced herself to smile. She didn’t know what she felt, but the very thought of the past, of reliving it through her child, made her want to retreat. She took a deep breath, fighting the urge to turn and run.
