He and she have been eight years apart since she was born.
Until that year, he had known her for eighteen years.
During these years, they were separated for eight years. In the first four years, they were only eight miles apart from each other. In the last four years, they were separated by eight thousand miles and still didn't know where each other was.
Every encounter in the world is a reunion after a long absence. Whether it was intentional or God's will, meeting him was the best promise he could give her.
He watched her grow up, and they experienced all kinds of life together, and they had to stay together for eighty years to be perfect.
