The Wall

Nobody saw it coming. We all were in the mind set that our government would never harm us. There hasn't been any rebellion, nor any protests. So what the government did, stunned us all.
Throughout the year of 2150, a wall was being built, separating the country into different sections. "To be more manageable" was the president's excuse. At that moment, we started to rebel. But rebelling only made the government improve on the walls.
By the end of the year, a huge wall, made out of an unknown material, was built. We were told to say goodbye to our loved ones on the other side. My boyfriend of 5 years and I were saying goodbye.
"I'll come back for you." He whispered, "I'll make a way to get to you, I promise."
