worn out - Story 168716 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"This isn't happening," Ben muttered, his voice raspy. He blinked, trying to clear the haze that clouded his vision. He reread the notice, the words still swimming before his eyes. He sank into a kitchen chair, the wood cold against his skin. He needed to do *something*, but his limbs felt heavy, unresponsive. The world felt muffled, as if he were underwater. He rested his head on the table, the exhaustion a tangible presence.
