This is Not a Drill

He wasn't a handyman.

The boy swung his hammer at every nail and conundrum. He hung pictures, straightened utensils, and opened locks.

When a girl stole his heart, the boy swung his hammer at her too. Unfortunately, instead of falling in love, the girl fell into a coma.

Then the boy was arrested and taken to court. There, with a wooden hammer no less, the boy was sentenced to spend the rest of his days in prison. Hammertime.
