CUT

She looked at herself in the mirror long and hard, stroking her lengthy hair. Ever so slowly as if to make it more dramatic she picked up the scissors. Tears filled her eyes as she made the first fatal cut. Long streaks of hair fell to the ground soon creating a large pile. The constant snipping sound filled the air along with downfall of that luscious hair. After the painful process was over she looked tentatively in the mirror, almost afraid of what she will see. Now the gorgeous long hair was replaced by a butchered and extremely short style. But no tears flowed as she looked in the mirror.
