worn out - Story 168902 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

He felt a profound emptiness settle in his stomach, a hollow ache. The news was a punch to the gut after weeks of relentless cramming for exams and juggling two part-time jobs. He wanted to scream, to lash out at the universe, but the words caught in his throat, replaced by a weary sigh.
