Need help fast

My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun
Coral is far more red than her lips' red;
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damasked, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound;
I grant I never saw a goddess go;
My mistress when she walks treads on the ground.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false compare.

The rain would not let up, and the picnic Russo prepared for his friends was going to waste. The rain drops hit against the tin roof of his parents' apartment like the sound of a steady drum roll. Raul and Melissa ran in from the downpour, using their coats as temporary umbrellas. As they shook off the rain in the doorway, Russo lit up with an idea. Though the gray afternoon and relentless drizzle meant being trapped indoors, it didn't mean the afternoon would go to waste. Russo pushed aside the two chairs in the living room and spread out a red checkered blanket. He laid out some cheese and crackers and three large sandwiches. Lastly, he pulled out a leafy green salad and began to slowly pour on the dressing, noting that it hit the lettuce just like the droplets outside hit the plants on the patio.
How does the rain influence Russo's plans with Raul and Melissa? A. Russo asks for his friends to go back home so he can enjoy the picnic alone in the rain. B. Russo decides to hold the picnic in the apartment to avoid the rain. C. Russo persuades Raul and Melissa to watch television rather than have a picnic in the rain. D. Russo tries to convince Raul and Melissa to have the picnic in the rain.
