Explanation:

To determine the narrative point of view, we analyze the passage. The use of "I" (e.g., "I said", "I'm going with Doreen") indicates that the story is told from the perspective of a character within the story, which is characteristic of first - person point of view. Second - person uses "you", third - person limited focuses on one character's thoughts/experiences but uses "he/she/they", and third - person omniscient knows all characters' thoughts/experiences. Since the passage uses "I", it is first - person.

Answer:

first person
