Answer 1

C. being left out

Step-by-step explanation:

The central idea the details in this excerpt best supports is being left out.

From the excerpt, we discover that Lynette stated the no twelve-year old should be invited over after school but only the 'Fab Thirteens'. This gives the reader the idea that the twelve-year olds were left out and were not invited.

Also, the narrator's statement in the first line, "Gradually, Lynette stopped inviting me over after school", clarifies the idea that she was being left out. Then when she overheard Lynette and Shelley's discussion, it dawned on her that twelve-year olds were not not invited and therefore left out.
