The word in the sentence which is the indirect object is: B. Rosa. In order for an indirect object to exist, a direct object must introduce it. An indirect object tells to or for whom the action of the verb is addressed and the receiver of the direct object. It is always a noun or pronoun that is part of the prepositional phrase.
