They met on the campus of California State University, Long Beach. He was an incoming freshman and she was a junior. Through mutual friends on campus and seeing each other from time to time, the attraction begun to grow. His charisma and sweet charm would catch her attention as he would try to “shoot his shots”, but due to the age difference she was reluctant. After many group gatherings and countless conversations, it wasn't until Turquoise’s senior year when she allowed Kadeem into her world. They connected over similarities and truly enjoyed one another's company. He got enough courage to ask her out and from there, 8 years later, we are here!
