Answer:
B. Happy to have his friend back working with him
Explanation:
The Old man Santiago was happy to have Manolin back because he considers him a friend. He believes so much in Manolin. Santiago was rejected and talked down by his co-fishermen. The return of Manolin marked the Resurrection of hope for Santiago, and he was able to share his past experiences with him.
Manolin was a great companion to Santiago. Even though Manolin's parents were not in support of him fishing with Santiago, Manolin returned to help him out.
