uneasy - Story 156866 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"To Mrs. Gable, with gratitude." The note was clipped to a heavy, silver locket, engraved with a delicate pattern. It had arrived with a messenger. From Jason. She'd known him, years ago. A student who’d always been a bit… intense.

She held the locket. It was cold against her skin. She found herself subconsciously rubbing her arm. She'd thought she'd seen him on the street, once, not long ago. The thought felt like a fresh wound.

She felt a sudden need to check the locks. She closed her eyes for a moment, trying to shake the feeling of being observed, and then moved to the door.
