“The man who had just entered the compartment broke into my reverie”—What seemed like daydream (reverie) to the speaker and why?

Answer:          On a train journey from Rohana to Saharanpur, a short encounter with a girl seemed like a daydream to the speaker. 

                        The narrator who was a blind man, was very much impressed by his girl co-passenger. With his four senses, what the narrator felt about the girl, seemed charming and attractive. Her voice, laughter, even the sound of her slippers seemed unique and melodious. To him, what began just as a liking, gradually turned into infatuation. Then to impress her, he began to flatter her saying that her face was interesting. While talking over various matters, he slowly was being captivated more and more by her. At last when she got up to get off the train, the narrator stretched his arm to touch her hair, but she moved away. Just there the scent of her sweet perfume existed. The girl left such an impression on him that the brief encounter with that girl seemed to the speaker as if he was dreaming while travelling so far.
