It began.

It was just a feeling at first, but I knew it was coming. I couldn't stop it, all I could do was wait and hope it passed me by.

It didn't, it just grew and grew in intensity.

But then...

Wait! Had it stopped or was it just lurking, waiting to take me by surprise?

I began to relax, relieved that it had come to nothing.

That was the moment it sprang, and I couldn't avoid it!

I fumbled in my pocket for something but it was too late, it was upon me!

Achoo!!

Damn it!

Sorry, Madam.
