Billy's father says they can't stay with grandpa and grandma cook because he and Billy's mother are getting a divorce.
Because of the fact that Billy's parents are separating, he can no longer stay with his grandparents, but rather go to a court where the judge will decide where the child will live from now on - whether that is going to be with his mom or his dad.
Answer:
The answer is Option B: "The narrator declares that he will die but the reader does not know why."
Explanation:
In the passage from "The Black Cat," Edgar Allan Poe claims that he will die tomorrow and he needs to unburden his soul regarding some regular household events that are terrifying to him. He says the event is unbelievable but that he is not crazy. He states there may be someone else who can explain what happened more calmly and concretely so that it might not seem to wild and dream-like as he feels it is. The author is about to start telling us about what happened that led to his death, or at least that is what is implied in this passage.

Dear diary,
I was walking home from school one day and decided to take a different route to school,little did i know,i walked right into a couple of boys throwing rocks at a poor puppy.Its was a horrible sight,the puppy was whimpering,I felt so bad for that poor puppy so i told those mean boys to stop before i call the police on them for animal cruelty.The boys ran off,scared to be caught,I knelt down to make sure the dog was ok.Lucky he was still breathing.A rush of relieve went through my body,I called the animal hospital and they picked him up instantly,i rode with him to the hospital and they said he had a couple cuts from the stones and then they patched him up and said "We'll look after him till he's better"I said "ok" .I walked home and thought what would've happened if i didn't stop them?...
