The correct answer is “She does not want to fall in love with anyone” (C). this phrase is based on classical mythology. The famous Cupid is son of Venus and Mars, he is linked to desire and love. He carries arrows to shoot his victims, once they are hit, they fall in love. As the quote says that she won’t be hit with an arrow it implies she won’t fall in love with anyone.
