Polly, minus the central letter...L, and letters of 'around' + S...closing letter of tears
first part of the clue - Polly (girl) with the middle taken out.

androu - anagram of around

S -plural (more than one)?

I could be wrong!
Heartless girl - pol(l)y
close to tears - s
after playing around - Androu
AROUND + PO (remove middle letter of Polly) LY + S (closing letter of tears)
