It was late after lunch when Shouko received a message from Teacher Shoda. She had just finished talking to Kyoya. The old teacher had compiled the list of items needed by the children.
Dry food, powdered milk, books, stationeries, toiletries and girls' products were listed among other things. There were close to forty children there, age ranging from three to fifteen years old mostly. A few of them were newborns thus diapers were needed as well.
"En, besides sweaters and new jackets, I think I should add new board games as well," Shouko mumbled to herself while jotting down the remaining things to buy.
The children could play the board games together while they were in winter seclusion. It was dangerous to let them venture out to play. Occasionally was okay but if they went out frequently, it would be bad once they caught a cold.
