How to combine multiple presence Aqara FP2 zones into one?

I’m using the Aqara FP2 sensor to create multiple zones within my kitchen. I used the group capability of home assistant to group them into one. However, the group becomes clear and then it goes to occupied as I move from one adjacent zone to another adjacent zone. How can I get the group to not go clear if I’m moving into an adjacent zone? For example, if I move from the sink zone to the oven zone the group should never clear. It should remain occupied. Currently the group is going clear and then occupied each time I move into an adjacent zone which is causing issues. with my automations.
