Floating table-cell right removes height

I have table with 3 cells |information| |two lines| |empty| and second row |empty| |two lines| |information| and my media query changes those two to

|information||two lines|
|informatino||two lines|

The problem is with two lines they dissapear as soon as I float that div right .verticalLine

Here is jsfiddle showing the problem https://jsfiddle.net/fh6unb7q/

.side {
  width: 45%;
}
.verticalLine:before {
  content: "";
  display: block;
  position: absolute;
  border-left: 0.13em solid #90A4AE;
  border-right: 0.13em solid #90A4AE;
  height: 100%;
  width: 16%;
  margin-left: 42%;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}
.verticalLine {
  position: relative;
  width: 10%;
}
.tr {
  display: table-row;
}
.tc {
  display: table-cell;
}
.year {
  text-align: center;
  color: #607D8B;
}
/* Media Queries */

@media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
  header h1 {
    font-size: 3rem;
  }
  .tr > div.side {
    display: none;
  }
  .tr > div.verticalLine {
    float: right;
  }
  .tr > div.year {
    float: right;
  }
  .tr > a {
    float: left;
  }
  .side {
    width: 90%;
  }
}
<div style="display: table;">
  <div class="tr">
    <a class="tc side" target="_blank" href="#">
      <h3>test test test test test test test test test test test test test </h3>
    </a>
    <div class="tc verticalLine">
    </div>
    <div class="tc side"></div>
  </div>

  <div class="tr">
    <div class="tc side"></div>
    <div class="tc verticalLine">
    </div>
    <a class="tc side" target="_blank" href="#">
      <h3>test test test test test test test test test test test test test </h3>
    </a>
  </div>

</div>

EDIT : Code updated using flex - https://jsfiddle.net/fh6unb7q/1/ HTML:

<div style="display: flex;">
    <a class="side" target="_blank" href="#">
      <h3>test test test test test test test test test test test test test </h3>
    </a>
    <div class="verticalLine">
    </div>
    <div class="side"></div>
</div>

<div style="display:flex">
    <div class="side"></div>
    <div class="verticalLine">
    </div>
    <a class="side" target="_blank" href="#">
      <h3>test test test test test test test test test test test test test </h3>
    </a>
</div>

CSS:

.side {
  width: 45%;
}

.verticalLine:before {
  content: "";
  display: block;
  position: absolute;
  border-left: 0.13em solid #90A4AE;
  border-right: 0.13em solid #90A4AE;
  height: 100%;
  width: 16%;
  margin-left: 42%;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

.verticalLine {
  position: relative;
  width: 10%;
}



/* Media Queries */

@media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
  div.side {
    display: none;
  }
  div.verticalLine {
    float: right;
  }

  a {
    float: left;
  }
  .side {
    width: 90%;
  }
}

As you can see still it is not aligned properly although || are still visible after media query is executed.

I would want it to be aligned like so

|information||two lines|
|informatino||two lines|

Then just add flex-direction: row-reverse; to the second line container.

ADDITION/EDIT after question in COMMENT:

With the flex solution you can assign the same class to each row container and create a CSS rule for that class. Then create another rule like this:

.my_row { 
  display:flex; 
}
.my_row:nth-child(even): { 
  flex-direction:row; 
}

This will reverse the order in every second row.
