Bab 738: OUT OF SON-ZONE?

"GOSH, look at how puffy your eyes are," Neoma said worriedly while looking at Lewis' face. His eyes were puffy and his nose was red– it was very obvious that he cried. "Your siblings will tease you if they saw you now."

"Your eyes are as puffy as mine," Lewis said in a hoarse voice. "They won't tease you, but I'm sure they'll blame me for making you cry, Princess Neoma."

"You're calling me 'princess' again."

She already noticed it earlier, but only now did she get the chance to bring it up.

"I'm sorry for acting childish and rude earlier, Princess Neoma," Lewis said, bowing his head in apology. "I'm your knight, and will soon be your Guardian Knight. My priority should only be keeping you safe. I shouldn't have been swayed by my petty feelings and demanded to be given permission to call you by your first name. After all, you've already allowed me to speak casually to you when there's only the two of us. I shouldn't have been greedy."
