According to me, The option must also be C as we can't use "a" with uncountable things like few, some etc.

Since, "asked" is the past tense used in the first sentence, we have to replace can with could.

@Surabhi.
Hey could is the past tense of can. Here we used could because of (A) my friend "asked" me. As asked me is a past tense of ask so we use could which is the past tense of can!
