worn out - Story 168934 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

The florist's delivery boy left the bouquet, a mix of spring blooms, by the front door. "Enjoy your flowers," he'd said with a smile. It was a cheerful greeting, but it did nothing to lift her spirits. Sarah picked up the bouquet. Her arms felt heavy.

She trudged inside, the scent a complicated mix of sweet and sharp. She hadn't the energy to find a vase. She just sat on the couch, the flowers resting on the floor beside her. A low hum filled her ears, a constant reminder of the world outside her door.

The television flickered, untouched. Her gaze drifted over the petals, their colours vivid against the faded rug. She felt utterly depleted.
