4ever Changes - Pavita Singh - Bog

Denise Diamond Scott, better known by her stage name, Diamond, was an up-and-coming solo artist who was breaking out from behind the Star as a background singer to being a global Super Star herself. Born and raised on the U.S. Virgin Island of St. Thomas, Diamond had big dreams for herself as far back as she could remember. On a dream and prayer alone, she moved from the only home she knew to the States after graduating from high school to pursue her passion. Her best friend Briyah skipped college to join her sister friend in New York, where achieving their heart's desires seemed possible. This would be the first of many changes for them. Christopher Michael Jackson was a hit maker producer who transitioned into a solo artist with a mile-long list of hits since he began his career at the tender age of 17. He met Diamond in the beginning of their chasing their dreams, landing them both in the big city better known as New York. He was shopping his music and maximizing the opportunities New York had to offer and often bumped into Diamond, sparking their friendship. They were both passionate about their God-given talents and ready to live out this life of fame and fortune. Nothing could have prepared them for the forever changes. There were the exceptional highs they experienced together and apart, and then there were the lows that neither wanted to recount. Chris's career had gone straight to the top while his best friend Diamond gradually made a name for herself through the industry. Christopher was born and raised in the state of Georgia in the greater Atlanta Metro area. He was a Southern boy at heart. He was a family guy with an extremely big heart that he got from his mother Joy. Because of Chris's extreme success, he experienced some issues where relationships were concerned, but his main issue was with women-one in particular with his first love, Diamond. Although everyone warned them that it was only puppy love, for him it felt as if it was love at first sight and he knew early on in their friendship that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Denise, her family and close friends still called her by her first name. They had planned a life together before either was even old enough to legally drink, but it seemed that no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't seem to get it right. The lovers had a break-up-to-make-up relationship. They had been on and off again since they met, and on their last break, he made the mistake of getting another woman pregnant while in a relationship with someone whom outsiders would consider Diamond's low-budget replacement. But for him, she wasn't any comparison to the woman he loved. Breaking the news to her was going to be the hardest thing he ever had to do thus far.
