What is the difference between "before or since" and "since or before"?

I think the correct answer should be A because we never use a sentence like that.
It should be 'The long awaited moment came at last'.
Further, the sentence C is a figure of speech and we can use it like that.
It should be 'The long awaited moment came at last'.
Further, the sentence C is a figure of speech and we can use it like that.
