worn out - Story 168486 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The sun beat down on Emily’s face, but she felt a chill that had nothing to do with the weather. She could barely lift the camera to take a final photograph. Her eyes burned, not with tears, but with a bone-deep exhaustion. She’d spent the last few weeks trying to prepare herself, to steel herself for this moment, but nothing seemed to have worked. A wave of nausea washed over her. She gripped the fence, needing something to steady her. The past was right here, tangible, and then, in a few hours, it wouldn’t be.
