Read this excerpt from “The Medicine Bag.”

“Even though the boy,” he said still looking at me, “bears a white man’s name, the medicine bag will be his.”

I didn’t know what to say. I had the same hot and cold feeling that I had when I first saw Grandpa in the street. The medicine bag was the dirty leather pouch I had found around his neck. “I could never wear such a thing,” I almost said aloud. I thought of having my friends see it in gym class or at the swimming pool and could imagine the smart things they would say. But I just swallowed hard and took a step toward the bed. I knew I would have to take it.

Which conclusion can be drawn from this excerpt?

Grandpa has a conflict with himself about whether to give Martin his medicine bag.
Grandpa has a conflict with Mom because she married someone from a different culture.
Martin has a conflict with himself about honoring his heritage because he thinks it will embarrass him.
Martin has a conflict with Grandpa because Grandpa is making decisions for him.
