Summary: 
Even though they were all happy that they weren't going to die from being shipped off, they all felt like they had gone back to the house with the daily task they did. Meaning that the four oldest children that we're left behind had a new task to follow. Figuring out how to comfort and make dew of the situation the younger children had created. All while trying to maintain a new lifestyle after years of being on one lifestyle their entire lives.

Notes:
I hope that this chapter might be better and have more things happening because I'm not technically following the manga in this chapter!!
This chapter is basically the children going through memory lane once again after leaving the house.
Random thought, But I feel like "When Will My Life Begin" from Tangled (Rapunzel) fits the kinda lifestyle that the TPN kids had. Just a random thought.

January 27, 2046

Although it was only two of us that had left, it still felt like the majority of us had left.

A lot of things that day made it felt like we were back at the house.

----- ++ ----- 

An hour had passed since Emma, Ray, and 'Mister' had left for A08-63. Even though it had only been an hour, things were starting to feel familiar, maybe even nostalgic for them to just have happened over a week ago.

Starting with the way they had said goodbye to them. For a while, that was the only thing that the younger kids talked about.

"I don't know... But saying bye to Emma and Ray felt like saying bye to Conny and Norman and the others!!" One of the children stated, tearing up at their siblings who had gotten Shipped off.

"Yeah... I felt the same way."

The children continued talking about the way they had to say goodbye to their "adopted" siblings. Making most to all of them start tearing up at the thought of their fates. Soon, leaving the topic alone and going back to playing. Leaving a sullen atmosphere in the air of the underground bunker.

A couple of hours had passed since the first thought of being back at the house and more and more thoughts had occurred...

Two hours had passed since the two oldest children and an old man had left the bunker. Anna and Gilda had started on the rest of the children's laundry from the morning. There was buckets that were almost the size of the buckets from the house, and equipment and products that were either similar or the exact same as the ones from the house.

It had originally started with Anna and Gilda doing the laundry, figuring out how to use the new products and equipment that was given to them until the younger children found them and absentmindedly started helping. That was how it worked at the house, if a handful of children started doing something to help out with everyone in the house, then everyone should started helping out.

With all of the children helping out, the oldest two girls had split up to help in different fields of work with two groups of children. Anna taking half and Gilda taking the other half. Gilda teaching the children what products to put into the bucket of clothing and how to make sure that they scrubbed out the dirt and other things inside of their clothes, and Anna working with the children on how to clean them and use the equipment that would help them rinse the clothing. Both leaving their stations once in a while to hang up and dry some of the finished clothing before returning. Soon, with everyone knowing and getting more familiarized with how to do it.
