However, the pandemic has made it hard for them to meet in person, with China’s borders firmly closed, but after a year and a half, they are finally getting ready for Johnny to visit Ella in her hometown.

However, they will need to overcome their physical differences, as Alina is a little person and her condition prevents her from walking or standing for long periods of time.
