uneasy - Story 156799 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The news report, detailing the unsolved disappearance of a woman from her home, played on repeat in his mind. The house had been hers. The place where he now slept. The thought was unwelcome.

He found himself sitting at the kitchen table, unable to concentrate on anything. He hadn’t felt this way, not since he was a kid. He shifted in his seat, the chair groaning under his weight.

He stood and walked around the house. He checked the locks, the windows.

He kept seeing her face in his mind. The thought was haunting. He had to do something, anything, to shake this off.

He decided that he would replace every lock in the house immediately.
