worn out - Story 168519 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The sun was setting, casting long shadows across the practice field. Coach Johnson leaned against a goalpost, the metal cool against his back. He felt a hollowness in his chest, a sense of emptiness that went deeper than physical fatigue. He'd been pushing himself, and the team, relentlessly. His mind felt like a jumbled mess, and his body was screaming for rest. He needed to unwind, but sleep felt years away.

He watched Mark, the team's best tackler, walking towards him. He dreaded this moment more than he would admit.

"Mark, can I have a quick word?" he asked, trying to sound as though his throat wasn't tight.
