worn out - Story 168048 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The phone vibrated on the table, another notification from work, another reminder. Kevin ignored it. He was supposed to go hiking this weekend, but the thought made him feel queasy. The constant, intrusive noise from next door was like a physical blow. He felt exhausted just thinking about having to put up with it.

He pushed his plate away, having managed only a few bites of dinner. He was starting to resent the very air he breathed. He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and tried to count his breaths to calm down.
