Which of the following nets could this cube have?

A two-dimensional net consisting of five equal-sized squares arranged in the shape of a cross. One central square has four other squares attached to each of its sides: one above, one below, one to the left, and one to the right.
A

A two-dimensional net consisting of five equal-sized squares. Four squares are aligned horizontally in a row, with one additional square attached to the top of the second square from the left.
B

A two-dimensional net consisting of six equal-sized squares arranged in a cross-like pattern. Four squares are aligned in a vertical row, with the second square from the top having an additional square attached to both its left and right sides, forming a symmetrical cross shape.
C

A two-dimensional net made up of three equal-sized squares. Two squares are arranged side by side in a horizontal row, with one additional square attached to the top of the leftmost square.
