Sure, I can help you understand what "double cross" means. So, the term "double cross" describes a situation where someone betrays or deceives another person who trusted them. It's like when someone pretends to be your friend, but then they do something sneaky or dishonest behind your back. Have you ever played a board game or a video game, and one of the players pretended to be on your team, but then they did something to sabotage your chances of winning? That's a bit like a double cross. It's when someone tricks you or goes against you after making you believe that they were on your side.
For example, let's say you and your friend are planning to build a fort together, and you agree on a design and a location. Then, your friend secretly tells someone else about your fort and that person ends up building a similar fort in the same location. That's a double cross - your friend betrayed your trust and shared your idea with someone else without your permission.
Another example of a double cross could be in a spy movie, where one character makes a deal with another character to help them, but secretly they are working for the enemy. So, that character betrays the first character's trust, making it a double cross.
I hope that helps you understand! Let me know if you have any other questions.
