Question

How did the narrator play on ranga's feeling for ratna?

Answer 1

After Ranga fell in love with the girl Ratna, he started to inquire about her to the narrator. The narrator, in turn, planned to play up a little with the feelings of Ranga. He said to him that the girl had been already married. When Ranga came to know about this, he was very disappointed. Seeing the disappointment on his face, the narrator knew that he had developed some feelings for her. Therefore he told him the truth that she is unmarried.
