Solution

The correct option is C were
Here, 'were' is correct in Simple Past Tense because it indicates an action that has already been completed.
'Was' is incorrect because the subject is in plural (
a pair of pyjamasand a pair of jeans). Thus, with plural subject, plural verb (were) is correct.
'Is/are' is incorrect because the passage is in past tense, as indicated by the first line 'had been lying...for about three days'.
