worn out - Story 168907 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The vibrant chatter of the coffee shop, usually a comfort, grated on Eleanor's nerves. She couldn't focus on her book; the words swam before her eyes. The reality of the college’s closure settled over her like a shroud. Each familiar face around her, each shared laugh, seemed to echo her own inner hollowness. She stared at her lukewarm latte, the foam now a sad, deflated mess. She felt an unbearable lightness, a sense of being untethered from everything she'd worked so hard for.
