Examples

  1. It's like when kids argue over who gets to sit in the front seat of the car, only this time it led to a war.
  2. A king’s trust was broken by love, just like how you might feel if your best friend started dating your rival.
  3. A big group of friends turned into enemies, and it all started with a simple table.
