    If you want to use consistent verb tenses in telling a story, that means you have to use the same tense, or at least they all should be in the past/present/future, depending on the first verb in the sentence. Here, the correct answer is:

    B) I met Rob for the first time in the school infirmary, and he smiled at me even though he was clearly in pain.
