Mahad and Tiffany met in the fouth grade at Malcolm X Elementary. They continued to go to school with each other all the way through high school, graduating from Berkeley High School in 2002. They both went there separate ways never to imagine that they had grew up with the person they would spend the rest of thier life with. Tiffany was walking down the streets of Oakland and ran into Mahad at his Barber in 2015. They exchanged words and then numbers because Mahad asked if Tiffany still dances and performs and he wanted to be invited. Tiffany went on and was inviting Mahad to every performance but he never showed. Final she invites him to something he interested in and he say he is going to be there in January 2017, but is a no show. God says everything happens on his time not your. Mahad felt really bad for not show up to that event and asked if could make it up to her, of course she obliged. They went out on that first date and had a blast hanging out and catch up on how life that they never stopped dating.
Tiffany was working with African American Shakespeare Company "The Black Cinderella", becuase of her Porfessor Mark Davis. On the night of Decmeber 7 of 2018, Tiffany showed to rehearsal on night that she wasnt called in, so Mark Davis asked her to step in and fill in the Cinderella party to help with getting the scene completed. The scene that she stepped into was when Prince Charming had came to the house to put the missing shoe on all the woman that lived in the house. As she is sitting in this scene with Prince Charming asking her to marry him, she felt uncomfortable because was stepping in and didnt know how she was to react and didnt know the lines she was suppoed to say. As she was going through this awkward moment she keep giving Professor Mark Davis the side eye as to what she was to say. Its was a hilarious moment that you just had to be there to understand. The production cast that was in the audience watching was in tears because of my reactions. Final the scene was over.... So I thought! Tiffany got home at one in the morning to find that Mahad was up in the kitchen cooking shrimp, but not just any shrimp Lemon Pepper Shrimp my favorite. So she causally is talking about working with the musical group and the cast member and realizes that one of the cast members was named Tiffani Williams. She then starts talking mess about how there could be two Tiffany Williams on the cast. So they go back and forth. Tiffany walks in the kitchen and grabs a shrimp and pops it in her mouth as Mahad says, "So you want to be a Williams," as Tiffany says with much attitude, " That's up to you", as she grabs another shrimp Mahad says, "So you want to be a Williams," as she pops that shrimp in her mouth to say, "Thats up to you," she turns to see that Mahad is on one knee with a ring. she started to choke on that Lemon Peppered Shrimp. Tiffany says, "get yo' @$$ off the floor, what are you doing?" While choking on her words the thing that she had known, "Mahad being the one since March of 2017 was happening." He was proposing to her. The entire time she was think what in the #€!! is in the air. First Cinderella scene and then at home, her life was colliding to be a magical fairytale that no one would believe us less they where there. She said yes!
