“Then I made a mistake”- discuss about it
Besides trying
to hide his blindness from the girl, the narrator was trying to be familiar
with the girl. After talking over the beauty of the hills, the girl was silent
but the narrator could not remain silent and asked, “what is like
outside”? According to the narrator, this was a mistake.
The narrator did not Want to disclose his
blindness to the girl. Rather he tried to impress her. But the wrong question
might disclose the narrator’s truth and the girl might feel less interested for
the narrator. These fear led the narrator feel his question to be mistake. But
actually there was nothing strange in this question as the narrator was blind while
pretending with the girl, he forgot all about his pretention for just a moment
and asked the question. But the lucky narrator escaped as the girl herself was
blind and was in attempt to hide her blindness. So, she found nothing strange
in the question.
