Y/n's phone rang while she was working on a painting in her library.She was making a painting of a man in her imagination.He had crystal eyes,sharp features and was standing in a field by his horse.She saw this man in her dreams and she never forgot about him.She wiped her hands and picked up her phone
It was the caretaker looking after her grandmother
"Hello?"
"Miss l/n,really sorry to bother you"
"Oh no worries Emily.Is grandma alright?"she picked back her brush and continued painting the canvas.
"Yes she is Miss l/n but..she wants to see you"
Y/n put down her paint brush and furrowed her eyebrows
"Right now?"
"I'm afraid so"
"Alright I'll be there"she said and the caretaker thanked her and she cut the call.Y/n kept her phone down and rolled her tongue in her mouth thinking what this was about
She looked at the painting and looked into the man's blue eyes.For some reason,his eyes calmed her
She wondered what it was?
She parked her car in the driveway right outside a beautiful old mansion from the 1900's.
The maids opened the door for her.Y/n gave them her coat and thanked them
"Granny?!"she called through the house.
Y/n walked up the stairs all the way to her grandmothers room and creaked the door open just a little
"Grandma?"
"Oh you're here"her grandmother said weakly raising her hand and pointing it at her.
"You called?Is everything alright?"
"Oh honey...you worry too much.Of course everything is alright.I just need a favour is all"
"Well of course anything"y/n smiled and sat next to her grandmother on a chair.Her grandmother smiled at her weakly and handed her an envelope
"What is this?"she opened the envelope and saw a white paper in it.
"It's a form for a charity I want to pay to an orphanage in Birmingham"
"Birmingham?"
"When I was young,I was almost on the streets,but there was a man,a gangster at that time but he had a heart.He never showed it but he had it in him.That man took me off the streets and gave me a job in his orphanage.A man named THOMAS SHELBY"
Something about his name made her heart skip.She looked down at the paper to see it was addressed to Shelby orphanage.
"I want you to go there and give this to them from you.I know I don't have much time but I want to repay it to them"
"Grandma don't say that please"she held her grandmothers hand.Her grandmother smiled at y/n
"I'll go by the plane today itself hm?"
"Thank you darling"her grandmother touched her cheek and y/n closed her eyes and smiled at her granny
She sat on the jet and leaned back on the seat.She looked out the window and then back down at the paper her grandmother gave her
"Thomas Shelby"she mumbled his name.Y/n felt chills run up her spine.She sighed and put it in her purse.
"Miss l/n kindly turn off your phone the pilot is about to take off"
"Yeah right"she said and switched off her phone and closed her eyes and just waited to reach Birmingham
The jet landed at Birmigham airport for private jets.She got off the plane and a driver was arranged by her to go to the orphanage
"Where to ma'am?"the driver asked
"Uh I believe there's a Shelby orphanage here?"the driver seemed to be taken aback but he still had a smile
"Shelby orphanage?"
"Yes.My grandmother wants me to make a last donation there.Apparently a man named Thomas Shelby helped her back in her time?"
"Oh yes.He helped my grandfather too"
"Wasn't he a gangster?"
"He was.A gangster with a hidden heart"
"My grandmother said the same thing"y/n shook her head with her eyebrows furrowed.The driver drove off the airport for the Shelby orphanage
Y/n got out of the car looking up at the beautiful building with 1900's architecture.She closed the car door and walked to the stairs.
She turned her head to see an inscription on the wall
Shelby orphanage
Established by Thomas Shelby OBEThere was his name again.
"This orphanage was established by Thomas Shelby.He was a peaky blinder"an old woman stood beside her staring at the inscription
"A peaky blinder?"
"It was his gang.On the streets of Birmingham they used to March together.He used to lead them to his way.He was the brains of the gang"y/n listened carefully at what the lady was saying
"He had three brothers and a sister.Arthur the eldest,john,Ada and finn.I used to be there at the time,I was just a young girl then"
The lady walked through the corridors inside the orphanage showing her around
"He helped my mother,saved her from my fathers beating.I saw him only once but all the ladies used to fall for him.He was the most handsome man in town.Eyes blue like crystals"
Y/n envisioned how the man looked
"Sharp features,a clean suit he always wore with golden pocket watch"
Just hearing her describe him made butterflies rise in her stomach
"And he had the deep throaty voice.He was a very calculated man.Every move he made was thought twice in his mind"
"Did Mr Shelby have a woman?"
"Oh he did!" Y/n's face lit up.She wanted to hear more about this.The lady took her to the lobby of the orphanage
"She was the most beautiful woman I ever saw.The people in town said Thomas Shelby was ready to kill for her...to die for her.She had his heart to herself.The cold gangsters heart"
The lady brought her to a stop.She seemed to stare at a painting above the fireplace.Y/n followed where the lady was looking
And her heart dropped in her chest
The same man she drew in her painting
The same man she saw in her dreams
The same man she thought was just her imagination
That man was real
That man was THOMAS SHELBY
