You were finally living a happy life in 2021.You had finally split from your abusive boyfriend and your soul focus was now on your daughter Audrey. You had sorted yourself out financially and with regards to your work. Things were going smoothly and you were becoming rather satisfied with the mundane routine that was life.
After dropping Audrey off at nursery you headed to your office and worked out some issues with clients. Lunch time rolled around so you went for a walk around Birmingham in the hope of finding a spot to eat.
As you turned down a side road you saw it was completely empty and you heard a faint buzzing noise. The further you walked down the louder the buzzing became. All of a sudden a flash and strobe of dark green light came over you and you were hurled onto a pavement right outside a pub called The Garrison.
You stood up brushing yourself off and looking round. All that went through your head was wtf was going on. A rather glamourous woman came over to you,
"Hello there love you ok?"
"Hi um I'm not sure I was just walking down a street and now I'm here"
"Oh God your another one. Right sweetie my names Polly and I need you to not freak out about what I'm about to tell you"
"Ok" you replied unsteady,
"You have time travelled from your day in 2021 back 100 years to 1921. We're not sure what's going on but hunny you aren't the first and we will get you home I promise'
"Wait what what wait huh"
Polly held out her arm and you thought you ought to take it. She walked you to a selection of offices named 'The Shelby Company LTD'. She sat you down at a desk and proceeded to ask you a serious of questions.
You heard a door slam behind you and Polly shouted,
"Tommy come here...we've got another one"
A tall man with dark hair came striding in giving you a side glance and walking straight towards a drawer and pulling out a bottle of whisky and pouring it into three glasses. He handed you a glass and gave another to Polly.
He perched on the desk in front of you,
"So what were you doing" he finally says cutting the tension
"I-I was walking down a side street hearing the sound of buzzing and then I was thrown out here in 1921"
"Well the good news is that your not the first but the bad news is we don't know how long it's going to be before we can get you back"
"What no I need to be back today tonight now"
"Hunny calm down" Polly says.
*Time skip to a couple of hours later*
You were taking a nap on the sofa in the front room of the betting den when you felt a presence join you in the room. You opened your eyes to see Tommy.
"We think we can get you back but it'll be a couple of hours yet"
"Okay" you replied shly
"Your a mother aren't you"
"Yeah...how did you know that"
"You have a warmth about you and a caring nature, something my mother never had and something my son will never experience"
You looked questioning,
"My wife was killed last year taking a bullet that was meant for me"
"Oh my that's truly awful"
"Yes but life must go on...how about you?"
"My boyfriend and I recently spilt actually"
"Oh sorry to hear that"
"No don't be he was an abusive asshole and I needed him out of my life...for good"
"Well maybe that's not such a bad thing" Tommy replied bringing a glass of whisky to his lips giving a sideways smirk.
