I'll take the stairs. Stairs are good for exercise, right? No, not the stairs. That would bring me right past Barbara's door. I wonder if she still wears that same perfume. I could take the elevator. But what if it stops at her floor and she gets in? I can't be in an elevator full of that smell.

What is most likely the author's purpose for using this narrative style?

A. To reveal the character's moment-by-moment struggle with subconscious thoughts

B. To explain the setting thoroughly before introducing the story's conflict

C. To create a slow, thoughtful pace that explores each of the character's ideas fully

D. To reveal why the narrator would rather not run into Barbara
