All Chapters of Sunlight, that I see: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Tbilisi was waking up to its usual chaotic rhythm. If you know where Tbilisi is, then very well. If you don’t, imagine a small, ancient city with narrow streets, old balconies, and weathered buildings that seem to carry a story of their own. Every morning, people from all corners of the country make their way toward the capital, filling the streets with noise, cars, and endless movement.The traffic is always heavy, yet somehow the city never seems to lose its calm. Perhaps it is the old streets, the faded facades, the warm morning light falling softly over the rooftops, or simply the quiet spirit of the city itself. Tbilisi has a way of making even its chaos feel familiar, almost beautiful. You may be caught in traffic, surrounded by impatient drivers and busy crowds, but somehow it is difficult to stay angry for long. The city moves at its own slow, peaceful rhythm, as if it knows there is no need to hurry.Melano, an extraordinarily beautiful and charming young Georgian woman, sat

Melano’s eyes went wide open, and her entire body locked up right there in the doorway. She stood frozen, completely confused.She was here to prove herself as the sharp, reliable lawyer for a massive development project funded by foreign investors. Now, she was staring at one of the main founders, the exact same handsome guy whose luxury BMW she had badly smashed just this morning.A wave of panic hit her. She felt small, dismantled, and suddenly very scared. Melano looked at Alistair like a child who had just broken something expensive and was waiting to get yelled at. Her heart raced as she prepared herself for a cold, angry, or reproaching reaction from the powerful businessman. But she received the exact opposite.Alistair was staring back with the same wide-eyed, surprised face, but he didn't look angry at all. Instead, he looked incredibly happy. He was completely amazed, utterly bewitched by her glaring beauty all over again. He simply could not believe his eyes. Seeing her wa

That night, Alistair did not sleep.In the evening, he met David, and told him about his sudden crashing for love and asked him to help find out personal information about Melano.David was a little worried, he had never seen his friend like this before, but he reached out his police officer brother to find out as much information as possible about Melano. Of course, he did not disclose the reason for this, but justified it by saying that it was necessary for security purpose.What else Alistair could do now? Nothing. That's why he did not sleep that night, he could not close his eyes, he was sweating all te way. He had never been so defenseless and vulnerable emotionally as he was now.A wealthy businessman, a developer who had never lacked neither the attention of women nor luxury, was suffering now, but bittersweet. He could not understand why.Finally, he went to the kitchen and took the sleeping pill from the housekeeper, Nelly and it helped him to black out for the night.When h

When will sympathy and love turn into enmity between two persons? When it comes to dignity, perhaps. Perhaps when a person you almost admire humiliates you.This is exactly what happened with Melano and Alistair.After Melano left the restaurant, Alistair had been frozen in one position for several minutes, staring aimlessly into space. In his ears, like the sound of a cracked bell, a woman's voice buzzed unpleasantly, "I don't like you.... I don't like you," and his imagination invented a few more terrible phrases adding, "I deserve so much better than you."Alistair was humiliated, as if cold water had been poured over him, he found himself in some strange, new reality. No one had ever said such words to him before, no woman had ever done such a thing. With a trembling hand, he picked up the phone and called David.“Alistair? I wasn't expecting you to call now, are you at peace, my friend?”David asked in surprise, because he knew about the meeting with Melano and was also sure that

The assessment and planning process moved along quite smoothly this time as well. Melano reached out to David frequently to request clarifications on various matters, asking for this information or that. However, she never did so personally, choosing instead to route all communication through her assistant, Nino.Two weeks slipped away without her establishing any direct, personal contact with either Alistair or David. David found this highly frustrating, but he had no choice but to comply with the demands of Melano’s assistant.Professionally, everything was in perfect order, but the same could not be said for her inner peace. Melano finally admitted to herself that she couldn't wait to see Alistair again. She desperately wanted to gauge his mood and discover his true stance toward her after everything that had unfolded in the wine cellar.Yet, she felt that contacting him directly would be crossing a professional line, once again. On the other hand, she sensed that as the days drift
