Answer:

The mood of the underlined verb in the sentence is subjunctive.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mood is the form the verb takes in orde to show how it is to be regarded. The subjunctive mood is the verb form used to express a wish, a suggestion, a command, or a condition that is contrary to fact. There are verbs which attract the subjunctive the mood, one of these verbs is wish. What is more, the form of the verb in the subjunctive mood may differ from the form with the same subject that is not in the subjunctive mood. Take 1 & 2.

1) She was talking to her friend Carmen

2) Kelly wished she were talking to her friend Carmen
