weary - Story 167898 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The grade she received that day sat on the fridge, a stark contrast to the colorful drawings of her younger siblings. A tight knot formed in her throat, making it difficult to swallow. The simple act of washing the dishes felt like a monumental task. Every movement required effort.
