Answer:

C. Allusion

Step-by-step explanation:

Beth is ALLUDING to how it must be how Hermione feels.

Here is a great definition: Allusion is a brief and indirect reference to a person, place, thing or idea of historical, cultural, literary or political significance. It does not describe in detail the person or thing to which it refers.
