uneasy - Story 156510 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The scent of freshly baked bread filled the kitchen, but it didn't do anything to improve Grace's mood. She watched, through the kitchen window, as the corgi, Cooper, happily sniffed around her vegetable patch.

Her stomach churned. The comforting aroma of the bread seemed to mock her current state. She took a deep breath, trying to regain control.

She closed her eyes for a moment, then, with a sigh, put the loaf down. She had to do something, anything, before her meticulously planned evening dissolved into the abyss.
