Prologue

A life of two people entwined together with secrets hidden in the past. Will love be able to conquer over the dark truth.

Frank pulled her to him and looked deep in her eyes and said, "Why do you do this when it troubles you as much as it troubles me. Why do you run away from me?"

Geisha pulled away, unable to answer.

As is he could not bear to be apart from her, Frank reached out desperately for Geisha again and pleaded, "What is it that keeps you away from me? What is tormenting you my love? You do not have to fight this battle alone. Tell me and I promise I will see to the problem. Don’t you have feelings for me anymore? Is that it? "

Frank felt as if tons of questions were bubbling within him and that this may well be his last chance.Geisha knew that her time was up. If she stayed a minute more she would give in and would never let go. She looked away and said one single word that crushed his heart to pieces. She said

" Yes"
A tear slid down her peach like cheeks like a pearl filled with pain. It tore at her heart, but she knew she had to be strong. Frank looked deep into her eyes once more, as if he was searching for the lost love within her, one last time. Like an image, he wished to capture forever in his mind. Then he turned and walked away without a backward glance.

An interesting begining but it needs a serious edit.
Had a go at a bit:
Frank held, her his hands on her hips, he pulled her to him and looked deep in her eyes and said-
" Why do you do this when it troubles you as much as it troubles me. Why do you run away from me? What is it that keeps you away from me? What is tormenting you my love? You do not have to fight this battle alone. Tell me and I promise I will see to the problem. Don’t you have feelings for me anymore? Is that it? "

Thank you so much for your edited version and takign the time to read..it meant a lot..:)

[quinfinn]

this is very sad. it is written handily, by a very capable and talented writer. i would change one thing, where it says "one single word" and it is followed, instead, by a sentence. this throws the balance out of kilter. other than that, this is a terrific write!

[Cerise]

Thank you it meant a lot..:)

[quinfinn]

feel free to send me more r/r's

[Cerise]

[quinfinn]

This would be good as a short piece, I think, but some of your language is a little odd and there's really no exposition, or really any resolution to the story. You have a good story and there's obviously emotion here, but at present it's a little incoherent.

[Cerise]

Thank you for your opinion

[Moniba]

Oh damn... I hate it when this happens :/
You've written well though.

[Cerise]

Thank you so much its my first try..your words meant a lot..:)
