Read this excerpt from a play.

Juan (setting down his backpack and taking a seat at the table): Mom, it’s not like I did it on purpose. I was just practicing my pitching in the yard.

Mrs. Ramirez (heaving a sigh and loudly exhaling): And what have I told you about that?

Juan: I know, I know. Wiffle balls in the yard, baseballs at the park.

Mrs. Ramirez: Well, a wiffle ball would not have broken Mr. Nguyen’s ornamental bird bath.

Juan: So, what should I do about it?

Which line from the play contains stage directions that reveal emotion?

A (setting down his backpack and taking a seat at the table)
B (heaving a sigh and loudly exhaling)
C And what have I told you about that?
D Wiffle balls in the yard, baseballs at the park.

The line that says „heaving a sigh and loudly exhaling” (B) contains satage directions that reveal emotion. By this line, you can notice maybe the tiredness of the woman after his son diboyed her. Even though she previously told him what should he do, or in this case not do, the guy decided to do it anyways leading it into unpleasant results. The woman doing this sigh and her notorious exhaling, she might be dissapointed as much as she is tired.
