You might not think that a conflict of either to stay alive or not and a conflict of to get a gift for someone or not have a lot in common, but they do. Della’s dilemma in “The Gift of the Magi” it about whether she should give up something she loves to get something for the person she love, while Rainsford’s conflict in “The Most Dangerous Game” is whether he should fight to live or just let himself be caught and die. In both cases they have to decide if they want to sacrifice something or not, whether it be sacrificing a life or hair. While the internal conflicts they have are both very different you can still find the similarities throughout their stories, although the outcomes are completely different.
