Enter key won't press

Do you mean the return key?

Yes Use an external keyboard.

Using Another Keyboard:

Reset the SMC and your NVRAM

(Applies to Intel-Based Macs Only): Sometimes when changes(i.e. updates) are made to the system, system configurations (i.e. for then keyboard) become manipulated, technically. So, reset the SMC and NVRAM. You may need to use this adapter, if no USB-A port exists: USB-C to USB Adapter - Apple

Hi,

I don't know what stores you have around you and what their stock would be, but the Best Buy, Walmart, Target and Office Depot stores near me all have USB keyboards for under $15. That sounds like your best bet given that you can't get in to an Apple Store soon enough. Also keep in mind there are Apple Authorized Service Providers who should be able to fix it.
