unsettled - Story 159628 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The sight of Ms. Ramirez, his French teacher, in his followers on Instagram took Daniel by surprise. He felt a cold dread creep into his gut.

He rarely posted, but the few pictures he *had* put up were a mix of casual selfies and shots with his friends. The idea that his teacher was privy to his personal life, a life he kept separate from school, gave him a weird feeling.

He found himself staring at his phone, his thumb hovering over the unfollow button. He decided against it. He just needed to figure out how to deal with this, however that would look.
