She held the scissors and looked at herself.

Pathetic.
Slut.
Whore.
Weak.
A tear ran down Stacey's cheek and she grabbed a chunk of her long blonde hair, put it between the two blades of the scissors and pressed the handles of the scissors together.
And she watched with a hollowness inside as chunk after chunk of her hair fell onto the ground.
