"Any second now" nghĩa là sớm thôi, sắp xảy ra, ngay đây.

Ví dụ
I stayed there a little while, thinking any second now he'll do a U-turn and come back. Or he'll go up to the roundabout (chỗ ngoặt) and turn there.

All of this is about 1/10th as dangerous as playing in an actual NFL game, but as Edwards’ story proves, you don’t even get the chance to get hurt playing in the NFL if you blow out your knee while on vacation. Needless to say, Jackson should be expecting a little ring-a-ling-ling from the Ravens’ front office any second now.

“I feel like I’m about to be attacked from all sides any second now,” my dad says, furtively glancing around (liếc nhìn xung quanh) as he drives our SUV through the backroads of my childhood neighborhood. Though these roads have always been quiet and barren, with few cars going by, the silence now seems eerie (lạ lùng) and unsettling — as if the very air is holding its breath while nature itself comes to a standstill.
