Idea

"Why do we even bother to say that anymore? I mean, look at us- surrounded by a graveyard of broken promises."

Esther Solomons- the woman that had held Thomas Shelby's heart from the time they were mere children. The woman he had loved. The woman he promised to return to after the war. The woman that broke him.

Thomas returned from France to find a letter awaiting him rather than the woman he loved. A letter offering Esther's apologies along with the knowledge that she had left Small Heath behind for a new life with her new husband. Promising him that she'd never be back and wish him a lifetime of happiness. But what happens when that promise is broken?
