If I Could Turn Back Time, I Never Would Have Said Yes

Synopsis

I went to my favorite singer's concert in LA alone. When the song-request segment started, I held my breath, praying the camera would land on me. Instead, the jumbotron lit up with my husband. Ethan Cole was supposed to be "out of town on business." Yet there he was, with his first love, Vanessa Hart, standing right beside him. "I'd like to request 'If I Could Turn Back Time,'" Ethan said into the microphone, his voice incredibly gentle. "To go back three years. I never would have broken up with Vanessa." The stadium erupted. Seventy thousand people cheering for their epic romance. Everyone except me. I was sobbing. During the next round, my tear-streaked face flashed onto the massive screen. "I'd also like to request 'If I Could Turn Back Time,'" I said into the camera. My voice trembled, but I didn't hesitate. "To go back to that moment. I never would have said yes to Ethan Cole's proposal."
