I actually wrote this shortly after the Heroes season 2 finale. I was just too lazy to type it up. Please review!
Based on the apron Maya was wearing in Mohinder's apartment.

I was bouncing up and down on the balls of my feet, my level of patience slipping with each passing minute, Matt wasn't picking me up today, so I had to wait for Mohinder. My favorite Indian man was taking forever to get here.
With a sigh, I glanced around the school gates. I was the only kid left. This upset me, because I really wanted to get home! My class gone on a field trip and I had spent all of the money Matt gave me to buy him and Mohinder presents.
"They better like them…" I grumbled, just as a yellow taxi pulled up to the curb. "Finally!"
My anger dissolved as I ran to the passenger's side and flung open the door. "Mohinder! You didn't forget me!" I threw my arms around him, hugging him tightly, before settling down in my seat.
"I wouldn't forget you, Molly," Mohinder said with a laugh. I really like his laugh. It's nice and makes me happy. Mohinder pulled me from my thoughts when he asked if my seat belt was fastened.
"Yup!"
"Good." Mohinder pulled away from the curb and into traffic before asking, "How was your field trip?"
"Yeah! That place had some really weird stuff! And the gift shop was cool, too!"
"I hope you didn't spend all the money Matt gave you. We won't be able to give you anymore for a while."
"Don't worry, Mohinder! I put the money to good use!"
As soon as Mohinder opened the apartment door, I ran past him and into my room. Slamming the door, I leaned against it, listening to see what Mohinder was doing. It seemed that he was in the kitchen. Probably making dinner… Perfect.
'Bags, bags, I need gift bags!'
Much to my frustration, there were no gift bags to be found in my room. Just a lot of pink tissue paper.
"Guess this'll have to do…"
Presents in hand, I made my way to the kitchen as quietly as I could. Thankfully, Mohinder didn't notice me. I put Matt's present on the table and then snuck up behind the Indian, who appeared to be making dinner.
"Mohinder!"
The man in front of me jumped with a loud yelp and quickly spun around. "Molly? Is something wrong? Why were you yelling?"
I couldn't keep a laugh in and it bubbled over, filling the apartment with the sound of my amusement. Finally, I calmed myself down and handed Mohinder his present.
"Wow… Your face! All I wanted was to surprise you, not scare you!" A small giggle slipped past my lips and I forced it down, making sure my laughter stayed subdued.
Mohinder let out a soft chuckled before opening his present. When he saw it, he broke out into a smile, picked me up and spun me around. "Thank you, Molly. I love it."
When Matt came home, all he saw at first was a flurry of pink. When he pushed the pink paper away from his eyes, he saw me with a huge grin on my face. "Matt! Open it!"
A laugh drew Matt's attention away from me and he glanced into the kitchen. Mohinder smiled at him but that's not what caught Matt's eye. It was the blue apron the man wore, with yellow lettering declaring "World's Greatest Dad."
"Molly got us presents."
"Ah." Turning back to me, Matt smiled and took his present. It was a shiny, new, coffee thermos. White words on the all black thermos said "Hero."
"Aw, thank you sweetheart." Matt reached down and hugged me, which I happily returned.
"My favorite hero!"
-The End-
