In this sentence,

A) "her" means the mother.
B) "her" means the friend.
C) "her" means the friend.
D) the antecedent of "her" is unclear.

The line means that the friend was in the attendance along with the mother and the sister of the narrator. This can be deduced because in the sentence the friend is mentioned separately from the family to differentiate her from them.
