My heart beats erratically in my chest. “There must be some mistake,” I stutter, nervously stroking my thumb over the tiny lettering. Surely this is a misunderstanding. The jeweler simply does not know our story. This ring has been on my finger for 40 years. However, the strange date stares back at me, testing everything I thought I understood.
