Problem with drumset notation

Hi, I have a handwritten drumset notation in 2/4 time. Is it possible to write this in a 2/4?

You can write the triplet as grace notes, but then you will miss the “3”. You can fake it with system text

I suspect it’s a three-stroke ruff (rudimental) and that the 3 is just to show it’s 3 strokes. (not a triplet) So the grace-note solution by @trumpetfish is the way to go.

Edit: If so I would keep the grace note size and skip the 3.

Thanks a lot Trumpetfish. This will do it.
