Outside MCA, Early Saturday Afternoon

The first cup of coffee - real coffee - hadn't put the swing in Mohinder's step as he approached the apartment building. It might have been the third, though

If Mohinder was paying more attention he might notice a small girl - not hiding, being careful - by the side of the street.

Alex was starting to get hungry, so paying attention might not be optional soon.

"Found them," Mohinder said to himself, looking up as he clicked the keys between his fingers.

Alex pushed her hair from her eyes as she looked around the corner. That looked like - Alex frowned, she hadn't seen him in forever - a lot like Dad's thought-picture of Daddy.

It had to be. She ran into Mohinder's legs, her "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy" only a little muffled as she clung on tightly.

"What?" Mohinder tried to dislodge his newly acquired accessory. Had the students turned into children again?

Not that they would call him - and his mind shied away from completing that sentence. He looked down, "Are you lost?"

"Mohinder," G'Kar greeted as he emerged from the building. "I see you have an armful."

A ten-year old girl had her arm around G'Kar's and looked Mohinder and the little girl over curiously.

Alex looked up at the new girl, and waved her apple-free hand. "Hi." She tilted her head. "'m Alex."

Mohinder put two and two together - another island-wide phenomena? - "Not one that I was expecting," he said, nodding to G'Kar. "And I see you've also found a child."

"Brianna," she replied. "Nice to meet you."

"'Found' is such an understatement at this point," he smirked slightly. "Is this lovely little girl a relative or did you suddenly discover parenthood?"
