Answer in Brief

Solution

Yes, many a times, I have got agitated over small matters and had a serious fight with my dear friends. It is mostly caused by some sort of misunderstanding. For some time we remain annoyed with each other or even stop talking also. But later on, I always realise that I have been wrong. I feel so when the misunderstanding is removed. I get agitated first, but I am also the first to resolve the matter and apologise, if necessary. I think, when I grow up, I will be more mature to control myself and won’t indulge in fights.
