Answer:

e. both a and c

Step-by-step explanation:

This shows that Esperanza has reached her revelation of her growing up journey. She realizes she is now older, too old and mature for games, and looks at her feet and realizes she's grown up, that her feet now doesn't seem like her. The feet she was looking at were her childhood feet, feet that don't belong to Esperanza anymore, who is now more grown and mature.
