The correct answer is D. Firs-person point of view
Explanation:
In literature, the first-person point of view can be identified due to the use of the first-person pronoun "I" and any other forms derived from it. This point of view implies the narrator is one of the characters participating in the story and also the story is told from his/her perspective, point of view, etc. which makes common to find the narrator perceptions and thoughts if there is a first-person point of view. The text presented includes this point of view due to the use of "I" as in "I was supposed to borrow a cup of sugar" or "I knocked on Mrs. Windermere's door". Also, this can be identified as the narrator expresses its ideas and though as in "Maybe she's away, I thought".
