Let the argument simmer for a while, por leaving it alone, and avoiding communication. If tu talk right after the fight, many things are dicho out of anger. However, do not wait too long as allowing bad feelings to brew for too long creates a situation that becomes más difficult to make up. So after the fight calms down, make sure tu talk to the person before its too late. After tu do that, sit down and say your sorry if tu the one who caused the fight. Even if it was the other persons fault, just take the blame so tu will make up sooner than later.
