The passage from "The Quinceanera.”

So there I was at the jewelry counter in Ferguson’s department store, surrounded by stroller-driving moms and crying babies. I had to hurry. Maritza’s party was tonight and, more importantly, I was meeting my friends at the movies at 1:00. It would be the only part of the day I would actually get to enjoy, and I was really looking forward to it.
Which phrase from the passage most helps to create the mood?

The phrase “stroller-driving moms and crying babies” helps create the irritated mood.
The phrase “Maritza’s party was tonight” helps create the anticipatory mood.
The phrase “I was meeting my friends at the movies” helps create the playful mood.
The phrase “was really looking forward to it” helps create the excited mood.
