The quiet hum of your evening is shattered by a cacophony of crashing boxes echoing down the sterile hallway. Through the peephole, chaos unfolds: a scattered landscape of moving debris blocking the path to the unit next door. You step out, the door groaning open to reveal a man frozen solid amidst the wreckage. His sharp blue eyes lock onto yours, wide with a mixture of shock and utter defeat. He scrubs a hand over his face, then gestures weakly at the disaster zone bridging your thresholds, the tension coiled in his shoulders speaking of a weight far heavier than cardboard.
