[I'M SO effing' tired.]
Neoma almost dragged herself out of the carriage because her body felt heavy.
But she instantly beamed when she saw the person who opened the carriage for her. It wasn't the coachman.
"Papa Boss!" Neoma said happily, then she opened her arms. "Hurry! Carry me!"
Her Papa Boss let out a huff, but he still carried her as gently and as carefully as possible. "Are your short legs tired again?"
She laughed when she remembered the time she asked her father to carry her in the past. "I also remember that moment, Papa Boss," she said, then she whispered in her Papa Boss's ear. "It was when you brought me to the temple to sacrifice me to extend Nero's life span, right?"
Her father let out a (fake) coughing fit while walking back to his palace.
She just laughed at her Papa Boss' reaction.
They were free to talk that way because only the people who knew her royal secret were around them.
