When they laughed at my feet, they did not realize that I had put on two different shoes because I’d had to dress in the dark that morning. They did not realize that I had dressed in the dark so I wouldn’t wake my father, who works nights to put food on our table. They did not realize that I had dressed in the dark to not disturb my mother, who had been up all night with the newborn twins. They just laughed.

How does the passage develop the conflict?

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to try my best here but I think the passage develops the conflict by explaining that the narrator is being teased, because their mismatched shows seems to be a silly mistake. The ones teasing the narrator very likely don't realize the narrator's situation, that they are living in poverty.

Stay cool.<3
