Ha, just kidding. That's not what it means to explode a moment, although you could definitely use an explosion as a scene to explode in a moment. Exploding a moment means you take a scene and go into extreme detail and zoom in on it. Typically, these are intense or dramatic scenes. For example:
Zandra
swallowed hard, nodding. “She’s still on the gurney. Follow me.” Zandra led
them down the hall and into a single room.
Even
though he’d known what he’d see when he stepped inside, Zane still felt so
broken at seeing the limp body on the gurney. Her eyes were closed, her head
lolled to one side, and her face looked almost peaceful. She’d stayed calm to
the very last breath. She’d been so brave.
Zane
went to the bedside, numb. He glanced back at the others, sure they were
feeling the same way. Zandra was staring at the ground, tears running down her
cheeks. Then, Tatyana turned away. “I’ll be outside.” She left the room,
standing just outside it. Jay followed her. Zane turned his attention back to
the body.
He
lifted her face, cradling it to his chest. Last time, the woman he loved died,
he’d never been given the chance to say goodbye. This time he could. And he
wasn’t sure if that was a blessing or a curse.
This scene is dramatic and scene seems to drag on.
Thanks for reading!
