Question

5. What does the narrator mean when he says, 'I smiled and cried at the same time?​

Answer 1

Answer:

it honestly depends on the context hun.

If they're happy tears or the story has a positive plotline in this phase

they could be tears of joy, the narrator is crashing because he is overwhelmed and on edge

or that could be sad smile with sad tears.

I doubt it's the latter tho

sorry if my answer is useless I tried heh

Answer 2

I think the narrator means that he us happy at on something which makes him emotional

Or may be

He is hurt that is why ge said nothing and just smiled and cried itself..

I hope this is helpfulfor you
