Answer: the correct answer is D. Novelty/predictability.

Explanation:

Relational dialectics is an interpersonal communication theory about close personal bonds and relationships that highlights the issues, struggles and interplay between contrary tendencies. This theory, proposed respectively by Leslie Baxter and Barbara Montgomery in 1988, defines communication frameworks between relationship partners as the result of never ending dialectical tensions.  The dialect is, in this case, novelty/predictability since Shelly has taken a novel action and Lincoln is predictable in the sense that he is schedule-oriented.
