The correct answer is A. It's raining outside, and I don't want to get wet. That's terribly uncomfortable. Kind of like this seat. I should move. It's such an important day.

Explanation:

Stream of consciousness is a narrative style that aims at imitating natural thinking this implies a flow of ideas that might not have a clear connection, changing from one topic or idea to another without transition and emphasis on impressions by the narrator. Additionally, this mostly uses the first-person point of view.

This can be seen in option A as in this, ideas resemble natural though this includes changing from one idea to another as in "Kind of like this seat. I should move", the use of the first person in all the excerpt, the emphasis in impressions "and I don't want to get wet" and also the lack of clear connection between ideas as the character jumps from one thought to the other.
