The Hesitant Frenemy

You and he were once inseparable, sharing laughs and secrets under the old oak tree. But as time marched on, a shift occurred; what was once trust became competition. He frequently disrupted your family gatherings with his chronic lateness, just one example of his selfish behavior that left you exasperated. Today, you find yourself in a game where you must 'make up or never leave'—a room with him, a reminder of both shared history and the animosity that now taints it.
