How did the narrator try to hide his blindness from the girl?

OR

“I wonder if I would be able to prevent her from discovering that I was blind”—How did the speaker prevent the girl from discovering his blindness?
 

Answer: In Ruskin Bond’s story The Eyes Have It, the narrator was very much anxious to hide his blindness from the girl who had just entered the lonely compartment at Rohana station. For this purpose, he began to converse freely and casually with her as if his eyesight was normal. Then he recollected his old memories to describe the beauty of Mussoorie. He described so smartly as if he often used to observe that. Besides, when the girl asked him if he could see any animal in the forest, he smartly answered negatively depending on his knowledge. Also to hide his blindness, the narrator pretended to study the nature’s beauty outside and cleverly told her that the trees seemed to be moving backward while they are motionless. Thus he tried to hide his blindness.
