Yet again, I've changed your thread title. From now on, please use the whole of one of the sentences you're asking us to look at. Copy it exactly.

Clearly you didn't read your post carefully before submitting it. If you had, you'd have noticed that you'd typed "mys".

I did read it but believe me there is something wrong with my phone. I corrected some of these words three to four times. I read it before submitting but my phone has some problem. The spellings that I corrected just turned again into incorrect words. I did that a few times before submitting yet again this happened.
 
Correct would be: they ARE on good terms or bad terms. You could also say: they came to be on ...
1) Jack and Jill came to be on bad terms after having a dispute.

2) Jack and Jill came to be on good terms after talking to each other for a few times.

Are these correct now?

With my change to sentence #2, they're both grammatically correct. I can't imagine a native speaker using either of them though.

1. Jack and Jill are/were on bad terms after an argument.
2. Jack and Jill are on good terms again after a couple of friendly chats.
