"Salomé!" A foreign tiny voice opens the door widely. A windowed door that connected to the kitchen and outside.
A blonde hair green eyed boy enters the kitchen catching all of the men attention. The child could've been no younger than 4.
"She's on the telly lad." Arthur looks over at the little boy but the little boy didn't respond but stared at all of them.
"Run along." Arthur says once again but the boy didn't move.
"The kid thinks you're crazy Arthur." Michael loves pointing at him.
"I don't know what the fuck is wrong with him." They all look at the wide-eyed boy.
"Maybe he knows who the peaky blinders are." Thomas suggest smirking as he nursed his cigarette.
"Gotta start 'em young." Arthur says taking a swig of tea that Salomé fixed him.
"Thomás laisse ces hommes tranquilles.(Thomás leave these men alone)" Salomé enters the kitchen with a baby no longer on her hip. The little boy laughs mischievously but he stays in the kitchen.
"Thomás." Salomé let's out a warning word.
Thomas Shelby shifted in his seat hearing Salomé say his name like that, he knew she wasn't speaking to him but to the little boy Thomas. But she reminded him of the scolding he would get from his mother and Aunt Pol.
"Which one?" John jokes making the man in the room laugh except for Thomas who just had a light smirk on his face.
"Be glad he doesn't understand you." Thomas eyebrows furrow thinking if what Salomé meant. Was the young boy mentally challenged or was it because of his young age he didn't yet understand his cheeky behavior.

The young child runs over towards Thomas. "Pistolet de cow-boy Salomé.(cow-boy gun Salomé)" The young boy points at the gun situated in Thomas side looking back at Salomé.
Salomé felt a lump form in her throat seeing the view of the gun.
"What the fuck is a pistolet?" Arthur says.
"A pistol of course." John answers.
"Only big man carry this, sorry kid." Thomas looks down at the small boy.
The boy just continued pointing at Thomas gun repeating the same words.
"Lad wants to join the peaky blinders." John laughs.
Thomas takes out his gun to show the child. "You're too young for this." He points at the gun in his hand.
"Thomás doesn't understand you." Salomé walks over to the child yanking him away from Thomas.
"Son pistolet de cow-boy tirera sur votre petit pipi, maintenant courez.(His cowboy gun will shoot off your little peepee, now run along)" Little Thomás becomes wide eyed looking over at Thomas gun making Thomas furrow his eyebrows at Salomé, none of his brothers understood French but he did.
Little Thomás runs off screaming in fright, everyone could hear his tiny pitter patter go up the the stairs rapidly.
The men laugh at the sight of the little boy.

"I swear to God if he wakes Madeleine I'm going to hurt him." Salomé let's out a frustrated sigh shaking her head at the sight of the young boy.
"What in the hell did you tell the little lad?" Arthur laughs heartily enjoying the scene.
"Just a mere warning that's all." Salomé shrugs with a smirk on her face.
