It was time again for my chum Pip to visit Miss Havisham’s house. Estella opened the door for him and he came inside. He passed through a room with a man and three women. As soon as he entered they all looked and started to examine him. KEEP YOUR PRYING EYES TO YOURSELF PEOPLE! COME ON! He’s not all that interesting to look at! Sheesh! Anyways, Estella took him into the next room and asked Pip if she was pretty or insulting. Pip, being a kind fellow told her that she was very pretty and not as insulting as the last time he was there. With this last remark, Estella slapped Pip hard across the face. WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT FOR YOU WITCH?!?!?!?!? WHAT IS YOUR FREAKING PROBLEM?!?!?!?!?!? HE JUST TOLD YOU THAT YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL AND NICE!!!!! JEESE!! Good thing that Pip didn’t break down and cry. That would have given her way too much satisfaction. When they finally came to the old hag’s room, she asked him if he was ready to play. Pip, after all he had been through, said no. However, he did say that he was ready to work. Miss Havisham took Pip to the dining room, where an old wedding cake still sat at the table. She told Pip that the table is where she shall be put when she dies. Pip and Miss Havisham began to walk around the room, at which time her four visitors came in. They began to tell her how good she looked (Are you people blind? She’s a bag of bones.), to which she replied that she obviously did not. She revealed to Pip that it was her birthday and the only reason she knew this was because her four visitors came to visit only to ensure their place in Mrs. Havisham’s will. I almost feel sorry for the old, creepy woman. Estella and Pip played cards again, and as before, Miss Havisham was trying to get Pip to notice how beautiful Estella was. After Pip was beaten at cards, he was let out to roam in the gardens, where he met a pale boy about the same age as him. This crazy kid eagerly wanted Pip to fight him. Pip, very hesitant and confused, finally gave in and knocked him head over heels with each punch. This young gentleman jus wouldn’t give up. He yielded to Pip only after he knocked his head hard against the side of the house. After his victory, he asked to be let out. But before he was let out, Estella let him kiss her because of his victory against the boy (some guys get all the luck). This parting made Pip feel like he was flying for the rest of the day.
