Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. Analyze "flirting": Flirting is consensual and light - hearted romantic/sexual interaction. Here, Olivia asked Mika to stop, so it's not flirting.
  2. Analyze "molestation": Molestation usually involves physical contact in a non - consensual sexual way. The scenario here is about text messages, not physical contact, so it's not molestation.
  3. Analyze "sexual assault": Sexual assault is a physical act of non - consensual sexual contact. Since this is about text messages, it's not sexual assault.
  4. Analyze "sexual harassment": Sexual harassment includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests, or other verbal/non - verbal conduct of a sexual nature, especially when the victim has asked to stop. Mika keeps sending unwelcome sexual texts after Olivia asked him to stop, so this is sexual harassment.

Answer:

D. sexual harassment
