✦ MADE SIMPLE

So I did exactly what I was told to do. During the day, I packed up my belongings like someone being forced to leave their home. Then when evening came, I dug through the wall with my bare hands. I carried everything out in the dim light, putting it all on my shoulder while everyone watched.
