uneasy - Story 156677 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The news arrived in a text, a simple, concise message. *Professor Bell moving on.* Emily stared at the screen, her heart quickening. She dropped her phone, the sound loud in the silent library. She hated the library, but it was usually her refuge.

She picked it up, her hands trembling. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, but the air felt thin, the silence suffocating. She looked around, the rows of books seeming to close in on her.

She quickly left the library, seeking any distraction. Walking fast, she felt a tightness in her shoulders, a clenching in her gut. She needed to know more, to understand.
