Assumptions (11)

“You cut your hair!” her friends exclaim.
“So what has happened? Is it bad?”
They’re thinking disappointed love,
Or something else that’s made her sad,

Or that she’s changed proclivity.
So maybe girls do that in books:
But it seems strange they never think
She might just like the way

It looks
