The Estuary of Desire Baruna
Eps. #11 Enchanted At First Look

"Aarghh, you again apparently!" Baruna smiled slantingly and continued to direct her demonic gaze at the man.

Diaz also widened his eyes when he could recognize Baruna's face.

"Once again you, you little brat! Why do you always meddle in my business?" diaz snapped while pointing his index finger at Baruna's face. Diaz then released the grip of Baruna's hand which was still strong holding the collar of his jacket.

Exposing the tightly clenched veins of his hand, Diaz again lashed out a punch towards Baruna. However, it was not difficult for Baruna to fend off and evade Diaz's attack. Baruna was much more deftly blocking Diaz's hand. It was even much stronger as it again showed the increasingly flaming look of its eyes.

"Basic cowardly men! Is there nothing else you can do but force a woman, huh?!" baruna said, then pushed Diaz's body very roughly.

"Goddessaarhh!" Diaz again let out a groan from her mouth. He felt pain all over his body as Baruna again threw him to the ground. The fighting ability that Baruna has, enough to make his guts shrink.

Baruna kept smiling discordantly. "I told you I'm no match for you, Diaz! You won't be able to win against me!" peeking Baruna scoffed at Diaz in a boasting tone.

With the rest of his strength, Diaz was able to get up and stand even though half a stagger. Staring cynically and pointing her index finger at Baruna, she took a few steps back.

"Right now, you can feel victorious! But, you don't know who I am yet!" Diaz continued to step back away from Baruna.

"You've already dared to make trouble with me, so just wait for the retaliation from me, I'll make a calculation with you!" pekik Diaz confirmed a threat, while accelerating his retreat, about to escape from Baruna.

"You think I'm afraid of your bluff? Try it if you have the guts!" reply Baruna lightly, not responding too much to Diaz's threat to him.

Baruna remained standing haughty and looked at Diaz with her sneering smile. However, he no longer intends to pursue or attack Diaz, who has now been defeated and intends to escape and disappear immediately behind the darkness of the night.

After Diaz was no longer seen from that place, Baruna then turned to look at the woman who was still standing in the middle of the dark place. Seeing Diaz and Baruna fighting, the woman could only silently lower her head.

"Are you hurt?" the woman asked as Baruna approached her. He remembers when the fight happened, Diaz had managed to hit Baruna in the face.

"It's okay, just a light blow. Diaz will not be able to hurt me," said Baruna arrogantly, while touching her cheek which actually felt a little sore due to Diaz's punch.

"You're on your own, all right, right?" Baruna was worried about the woman.

"I'm fine" said the woman briefly.

"You know my brother's name. Have you ever met her before?" The woman asked back. She was curious because the man before her knew the name of the man who had just nearly hurt her.

"Huh .. That jerk guy is really your brother huh?" Baruna grinned. "Originally you know, that bastard once tried to rape my sister!" baruna said with a wry smile.

"He's not a good person. His heart was filled with ambition, hatred and vengeance!" the woman chimed in with a fierce tone. Like there was disappointment implied from what he expressed at that time.

"If he's your brother, but why do you say he's a bad guy and wants to hurt you?" Baruna asked a question. However, the woman was just silent, not wanting to answer Baruna's question.

"Thank you very much because you helped me. If there wasn't you, I don't know how Diaz would treat me. And because of me you're dealing with him again," said the woman diverted. With a sense of arrogance he covered both his hands on his chest and bowed his back before Baruna. It was the way the woman expressed her gratitude to Baruna, who had already saved her from Diaz, her own brother who deliberately wanted to hurt her.

"No problem." Baruna only smiled faintly while raising both of her shoulders.

"Then why are you still out at night like this? Shouldn't a girl be home at this hour?" ask Baruna again.

"I-I .. I just got home from work" said the woman, sounding nervous.

"A woman coming home from work this late?" Baruna frowned.

"Yes, what can I do." The woman just shook her head slowly.

Baruna also nodded her head. Although in his view, it is not uncommon for a woman to work at night, but he also knows there are several types of professions that require a woman to keep working in the night shift. Therefore, Baruna was not too dizzy.

"Include my name Floretta, just call Flo. What's your name?" The woman introduced herself while extending her hand to Baruna.

"I'm Baruna." Baruna shook the woman's hand.

"We'll just talk there, it's so dark in here." Baruna pointed to a bench that was on the side of the sidewalk not far from where they were standing at the time.

The two then walked together to the place designated by Baruna. They sit on a bench, next to each other. In that place it was now much brighter, so that the two could see each other's faces more clearly.

For a moment, Baruna was stunned. The woman in front of him was very beautiful. Although the woman was wearing loose clothing and was seen covering almost all parts of her body, Baruna could feel behind it all, the girl named Floretta, had a body shape that was also very beautiful.

Baruna was very fascinated as she looked at the girl's face. A face that looks very plain without makeup polish at all. The tapered cheeks, the flawless pure white skin, the pointed nose and the natural pink thin lips that the woman had looked perfectly in Baruna's eyes. Plus, there were dimples appearing on both of his cheeks while he was smiling, it was certain that all of that perfection was capable of drugging every eye that saw him.

The most special look of the girl's face was her eyes. Floretta has a pair of very beautiful eyes with her manic blue.

"Why do I feel like I've seen someone who has the same eyes as this girl?" baruna thought to herself.

"The eyes, reminding me of the sexy masked dancer in the club earlier," Inner Baruna continued to mutter and tried to guess.

Under the bright lights there, Floretta also looks amazed when looking at the handsome face of Baruna. For a while both of them smiled and just stared at each other. Baruna and Floretta were swept away in their respective admiration.

Fascinated at first glance, that was what the two of them were feeling at that moment.
