Oh my God!

I can't believe it! Herbert, the son of Pip's tutor and Miss Havisham's, is the pale young gentleman whose butt Pip kicked. That was my first reaction. Once I recovered from my surprise, I realized that it really isn't that surprising. Matthew Pocket wouldn't have not acknowledged his cousin's birthday , so he sent his son. Also, I love how the story of Miss Havisham is slowly being pieced together. It turns out that I was somewhat right. She did get devastating news which is why all her clocks were stopped. This leads me to a question for you reader. If you had loved someone and gotten news that they weren't going to return that love and betray you, what would you have done?
