"Not having him every day in my life was definitely like something was missing. For example, he used to come when I was 12 and the next time he came, I would be 14. He would be like, ‘wait, how did you grow so fast?’ But it’s the sort of connection we have. We call each other every day and have fun conversations. When he is with us, we go out for family outings. We spend a lot of time together. We understand that it’s his work and that’s how it’s supposed to be. My mom has also coped with that for 24 years now. It’s been a long-distance relationship. It’s solely based on understanding and love."
