If I'm understanding you correctly (sorry, I'm new at this) It sounds like you are describing an accident that either didn't actually happen, or was minor compared to what could have happened. I would call this a "near miss" or "close call"
Explanation:
For example: I had a near miss today when a dog ran out in front of me.
Or: He had a close call when his foot almost slipped over the edge of the cliff.
Maybe it's because not everyone can cope with each other after such a long time. Maybe not everyone has great social skills after living together for awhile.
Vowels are a e i o u and sometimes y
In the word barge, the vowel would be a and e
In case you have more questions a consonant is any letter other than the ones I wrote above.
