Solution

The correct option is B mine/me
The given sentence shoes possession. So, a possessive pronoun must be used.
Possessive pronouns are pronouns that demonstrate ownership, showing that something belongs to a particular someone.
It is clear that the possessive pronoun of the first person must be used. The possessive pronoun of singular first person is 'mine'. In the second part, the pronoun acts as an object. So, the object pronoun of the singular first person must be used. The object pronoun of singular first person is 'me'.
Thus option B is the correct answer. Options A,C,D,E are incorrect.
