This is the emotional moment two siblings were reunited after spending fours years apart. The siblings were separated in 2017 after Sibi Soumahoro, 22, moved to the United States from Abidjan, Ivory Coast, to pursue his career as a tennis player. Footage shows Sibi crying tears of joy as he reunites with his sister Kadidia, 25, at Piedmont Triad International Airport in North Carolina. Sibi said: "I was thinking about the moment all day leading up to it. "I thought it would be a normal greeting, but my emotions were deeper than that. "The moment I saw her my heart dropped and I couldn't hold a single tear back." Kadidia moved to the United States in March to study biology at Mount Hood Community College in Gresham, Oregon. However, she was only able to meet her brother in November after being invited to Thanksgiving at Sibi's in-laws in Greensboro. Sibi added: "I am very grateful for my wife's family, they've done a lot for me, they have been able to understand how far away my family are. "As an immigrant, you are limited in how much you can travel and what you can do. They understood that and I am grateful for everything they have done." As soon as the siblings were reunited, they were like teenagers again, said to Sibi. Sibi added: "It felt like it used to be, we call each other twins, we were goofy and playful, I annoy her all the time, we messed around just like when we were young. "We still have that sibling connection like we used to. "In the past years we've changed so much physically, but emotionally it was the same. "Seeing her caused so much emotion for me, I can't imagine what it's going to be like when I see my mother again." The footage was filmed on November 21st.
