Still, a working day like any other and, as such, he would not be able to spend the holidays with his family as he does every year. He would break the news that evening at the group call. In fact, even managing to organize a call with the whole family was an epic feat. Everyone's work schedules and the fact that they lived in four different time zones didn't make it easy, Especially since the two most problematic time zones were his and George's, thirteen hours apart. This meant that, in turn, the two brothers had to put up with their sister's rants and their mother's worries as soon as they woke up. It was torture that would have made even a saint lose patience.

“Alright. I’ll call you every few weeks, okay? Just so we can talk.” “Feel free to call me whenever you need. Just keep in mind that our time zones are different. I am five hours ahead of you, so it may be late there, but it is the early morning hours here, and it is only a few hours from dawn here, alright?” “Did you leave the states? Is that why you never came back to the business meetings? I know that Dominique also stopped going to them after a year or two. I always wondered why she seemed disappointed when she came home from them. She finally gave all of that up so we could spend all of our time together and with our family.”

Zeke was on a two-week business trip to Japan, leaving me alone in the penthouse. It had only been six days since he’d gone, but I already missed him so badly. Usually his trips only lasted four days to a week because he often came home early, as if he couldn’t bear being away from me either. This was the longest we’d been apart, and the distance felt like a weight on my chest. Even though he calls me daily, it still seems not enough. I knew now what they meant when they said love makes even the shortest separation feel endless.

They wanted Sam to pursue him to reconsider his decision. Sam informed them that it is not possible. Cletan and his wife were staying apart from last 2-3 years. His wife, an IT engineer was currently employed with One of the Top MNC in Country U.They were visiting each other whenever they could.However, both countries were in different continents and in different time zones.

Eva said to Monic who Monic and Liem considered her own sister all this time. "Have I been gone that long ?" Said Liem who began to realize how long he had been gone all this time because of the difference in relativity of time between the second world and the first world. "What do you mean Master does not know how long you have been gone all this time ?" Said Carlos to Liem who looked very confused about the time difference. "I feel like I just left a few days from the last time I came at that time. Is this all because of the relativity of different times and keeps changing ?" Said Liem who seemed immediately silent and thoughtful.

A love that worth everything. Our time difference is one of the major problem we encounter. Being separated from someone you love takes emotional, psychological, physical stress. There where times you want to be with him on your dark days but he wasn't able to do that. During night time I make sure to give him a time so we can catch up on what was happening to us. Yes most of the time I'm the one who adjusting to us. I’m focusing on my studies but I had to make sure I will never miss a chance to say hello and check him. Even how tired we are we make sure the distances between us will not be the reason for us to be broke.

But could the two possibly meet as they were in the same country? They couldn't because they were in different states of the country, two hours apart from changing each other's lives AGAIN.

It was simply the particular distance that had settled between them since Clara moved abroad, the ordinary erosion of time zones and different lives and the unspoken agreement neither of them had ever stated outright, that some conversations were easier to have less often than to have badly and frequently.

Nate comes back to the table, and points at her, “Oh yes, while I remember… Could I borrow your phone for a bit, Sis? I got you that SIM card yesterday. I’ll set it up and maybe we can try and call your family later. You’d know when would be the best time to call them.” She nods and puts a finger between her eyebrows and rubs it thinking, “What’s the time difference again?” George smirks, “They’re an hour ahead.” She nods, “Okay, and the time here now is?” Nate looks at his watch,
