Write a 'breathless paragraph' flash where the whole story takes place in just one moment.  This could be right before, right after, or right as something happens.  It's fine to allude to things that have happened or will happen, but the story itself must take place in the moment.  

A 'breathless paragraph' is a flash that is written in one paragraph.  It often is written as one big, long run-on sentence, or with no punctuation at all.
