Answer:

D. When I found out that my parents had invited the minister's family over for Christmas Eve dinner, I cried. What would Robert think of our shabby Chinese Christmas?

Explanation:

A "conflict" refers to the struggle that the character in the story faces. This brings about<em> problem</em> or <em>tension</em> in the story.

"Fish Cheeks" is a narrative essay written by <em>Amy Tan</em>, a Chinese-American author. The story talks about a<em> 14-year-old girl</em> who was worried about how her mom invited the minister's family for a <em>Christmas Eve dinner</em>. Since she belonged to a Chinese family, she was worried about how the minister's family would perceive their Chinese way of celebrating Christmas. She was particularly worried because she fell in love with Robert, the minister's son. So, this part is where the tension or conflict of the story falls. The main character is having a problem about the upcoming Christmas Eve dinner. This aspect challenged the character on what she'll be doing during the event.
