Newbie load balancer question

So we have one load balancer and one backend VM to simplify this scenario.
Each request is 2kb total (1kb for get request, 1 kb for response).
Bandwidth usage on load balancer would be 4kb total per each request:
- get request sent from the client goes to the load balancer (1kb used)
- get request is forwarded to VM (1kb used)
- reply from VM to load balancer (1kb used)
- load balancer forwards a reply to client (1kb used)
I'm right or I'm missing something?
Thanks

Sounds about right, but you usually don't get charged on internal network
