Answer 1

The person sounds as if thaey are depressed but nobody or a particular someobody didn't seem to care from the writers perspective, although it was obvious

Answer 2

It's been a while since 10th grade literature, but...

I think that it means a part of himself has died, such as his childhood innocence.  The fact that he does not cry could also mean that this is a rite of passage for him, and that he has to accept what has happened as a natural part of his progression through life.

Answer 3

Do you know who said it? Was it Phineaus or the other boy?
