Kathy's father was afraid that marriage during her first year in law school might cause her to fall behind in her studies or cause her to drop out of school. He called Kathy and promised her 10,000 if she postponed her wedding until after completion of her first year of law school. Kathy agreed and postponed the wedding for a year. Kathy successfully completed her first year of law school, but soon thereafter, Kathy's father died.

A) unsuccessful because her father's death terminated the contract.
B) successful, as there was consideration.
C) unsuccessful because her father received no benefit.
D) unsuccessful because it was merely fatherly advice not to get married during the first year of law school.
