13. Review the excerpt

One night, after what felt like a googolplex inventions, I went to Dad's

closet. We used to Greco-Roman wrestle on the floor in there, and tell

hilarious jokes, and once we hung a pendulum from the ceiling and put a

circle of dominoes on the floor to prove that the earth rotated. But I hadn't

gone back in since he died. Mom was with Ron in the living room, listening

to music too loud and playing board games. She wasn't missing Dad. I hel

the doorknob for a while before I turned it.

Which is an explicit detail from the passage?

a. The narrator doesn't like Ron in their house

b. The narrator's mom is with Ron in the living room

c. Ron and the narrator's mom are dating

d. The narrator's mom likes Ron more than she'd liked the narrator's dad
