Chapter 40 Birthday Surprise

"Oichi, do you know what day today is?" This is the number of times Ikuta has pestered Oda to ask this question.

"Aren't we going to record the show today?" Oda impatiently moved her head away from her eyes, "Don't you think you like today's guests very much?" At this point, Oda touched his chin with his hand and recalled it.

"Um, Miyata-san?"

"That's not true!" Ikuta pouted, slapped Oda's shoulders back and forth with his hands, and said in a small voice, "Oichi, you idiot."

Oda heard what Ikuta said, but still deliberately pretended not to hear it. When Ikuta found that it was fruitless, he turned to Ko Asuka and started to pester him.

"For the surprise tonight, hold it back, little Asuka." Seeing the little Asuka with a half-smiling face but pretending to be impatient, Oda cheered for her in his heart. Today is Ikuta's birthday, and this matter is all

The members all knew it, but in order to have a surprise later, everyone had to pretend not to remember anything.

By the way, Oda's impatience just now was not an act.



"Then, today's program is over, Ikuta-san, could you please give me the closing remarks." Before the recording of the series ended, Banana Man specially called Ikuta, who was not in a very high mood because no one remembered his birthday, to do the ending.

Of course, Bananaman is also the internal support of the members. These two formula brothers usually care about the members and cooperate with the members to surprise Ikuta. This is what they are willing to do. Some Shitara who are shaking their heads know about this.

At that time, he patted Himura on the shoulder with a smile on his face: "Leave this matter to me, I'm very good at it."

"Well, see you next time!" Ikuta, who is usually full of energy, said a little weakly today, probably because he was beaten hard enough.

"Ikuta-san, this time it's not good, there's no emotion at all." Shitara suddenly made a serious face, and at the same time made a cut gesture to the cameramen in the audience, "It needs to be recorded again."

"I'm still waiting to eat hot pot after the recording is over." Himura understood this and looked at his watch with an impatient look on his face, "Ikuta-san, hurry up and adjust the state. Hurry up and finish recording again."

."

"Yes... I'm sorry." His birthday was forgotten by his good friends, something went wrong in the series and caused trouble to the Bananas and Staff... Several tragic things passed through Ikuta's mind, and he couldn't help but shed tears.

Seeing Ikuta crying, Shitara also realized that he was pretending a little too much: "Ikuta-san, are you okay? Why don't you close your eyes and adjust your condition first." After saying this, Shitara looked at Oda crazily.

Oda, who was sitting next to Ikuta, received Shitara's signal, stretched out his arms to hug Ikuta, and covered her eyes with his hands.

At this time, several non-selected members who had a good relationship with Ikuta who had been preparing for a long time in the backstage pushed out a specially ordered large cake. The wheels of the trolley repeatedly pressed against the bulges on the floor of the recording venue, making a sound.

There was a thumping sound, but fortunately Ikuta's sobs were high-pitched and covered it up perfectly.

Seeing that everything was ready, Shitara suppressed his smile and said in the serious voice before: "Ikuta, are you ready?"

After hearing Shitara's words, Ikuta seemed to want to avoid causing trouble to others. He said "Ready" in a crying voice and stood up from Oda's embrace while wiping his eyes.

What greeted her was:

"Iku-chan, happy birthday!"

All the members and the two MCs spoke loudly in tacit agreement the moment she opened her eyes, followed by roars of laughter. For this surprise, everyone had been acting for too long and almost couldn't hold it in anymore.

When Ikuta heard such a loud noise, he was startled at first, and then he was stunned when he saw the huge cake in front of him. After staying for a while, he thought about the situation clearly, and then mechanically turned his head in the direction of Oda.

The eyes seemed to project three words: "Really?"

What responded to her was Oda's smiling face and nodding.

"Thank you... thank you." The tears that he had just tried to hold back flowed down like a bursting dam. Looking back on everything he had experienced today, Ikuta suddenly realized that all these abnormalities were excusable.

"It's really hard for us to hold it back." Shitara put his hands on his chest with a smirk on his face and said, Himura beside him also smiled and agreed.

After a while, Ikuta's mood basically returned to normal. At this time, Ikoma also saw the opportunity and put his arms around Ikuta's shoulders: "Ikku-chan, blow out the candles and make a wish!"

The big cake in front of Ikuta was mainly yellow in color, with the words "Happy Birthday Ikuta Erika" written on it, and two "1" and "5" candles.

"I hope I can eat more delicious food, I hope I can appear in a musical, I hope my debut album will be a big hit, I hope... my friends and Nogizaka can continue to move up." Ikuta closed his eyes and everyone could hear it.

The voice prayed.

"Wouldn't it be impossible to make a wish just by saying it? It's too greedy to have so many wishes." Oda complained in his heart, but it was hard to break the warm atmosphere.

During the birthday song, Ikuta blew out the candles. Because the cake was so big, all the members present and the banana man got a piece. By the way, for some reason, Ikuta cut two particularly big pieces for himself and Matsumura.

After eating the cake, it was time to give gifts. Most of the members gave them mobile phone chains, skin care products and the like, more like things given by girls. The gift Hashimoto gave was a book. According to the gift she gave,

With her somewhat evasive eyes, Oda guessed that she probably just took a new book from the shelf and gave it away.

Xiao Asuka and Hoshino gave each other a 20,000 yen barbecue coupon, and the three of them also made an appointment to have barbecue together next time.

The gifts from Shiraishi and Oda were given side by side: Although I was surprised by Shiraishi's clothes, the piano ring given by Oda still won Ikuta's heart more.

Seeing Ikuta putting the ring on his hand and playing with it, Oda couldn't help but feel a little proud. He turned and raised his eyebrows at Shiraishi. As a result, Shiraishi caught this provocative action, so that Oda's

Shiraishi rubbed his face with his hands for half a minute before letting go.

The gift that Hikaka prepared for Ikuta was a scarf, and she also embroidered Ikuta's name and the word "15" on the scarf. According to Hikaka herself, she wanted to give Ikuta a handmade gift every year, and recorded it on it.

Previous year.

"Everyone, thank you so much." Ikuta flipped through the gifts one after another, tears welling up in his eyes with signs of flowing out again.

"Shitara-san, Himura-san, don't you have a gift for Ikuta?" In order to prevent Ikuta from crying again, Oda hurriedly cue and looked at the banana man who gave the gift with a smile - during the six months of the group's recording

, the members are all very familiar with the two formula brothers, especially some members who have performed well in variety shows.

"Huh?" The two people who were suddenly cued were stunned for a moment.

"Today, Himura-san invites everyone to have hot pot!" Shitara's reaction was quicker. He connected with Himura's previous suggestion of "going to eat hot pot" and immediately encouraged Himura.

"I...I didn't..." Himura also reacted and was about to deny it, but his weak words were completely drowned out by the cheers of the members.

"What's wrong Himura, do you want to break your promise?" Shitara added another blow.

"Okay, okay." Himura seemed to have admitted his defeat, and nodded and accepted the job. For them banana people, treating them to a hot pot meal is not a big burden.
