Read the excerpt from "An Hour With Abuelo". Anyway, after my mother nags me for about a week, I let her drive me to Golden Years. She drops me off in front. She wants me to go in alone and have a “good time” talking to Abuelo. I tell her to be back in one hour or I'll take the bus back to Patterson. She squeezes my hand and says, “Gracias, Hijo,” in a choked-up voice like I'm doing her a big favor.

Which words in this excerpt create an annoyed tone?

A. nags, "good time"

C. alone drops me

B. be back, Gracias

D. choked-up, favor
