It's Christmas once again and you know what that means, Markhyuck's annual skating day!

This Christmas was different though. Instead of only the two of them skating, they were going to be teaching their first born son how to skate.

"Chanmin-ah! Hurry up!" Donghyuck called for his son.

"Eomma! Eomma! Will I get my own skates?" Little Chanmin asked.

Donghyuck giggled and ruffled his son's head.

"If you become good in ice skating, of course your Appa will buy you your own skates."

Speaking of Appa, Mark was preparing his and Donghyuck's own skates.

"Let's go?"

Chanmin nodded frantically and dragged both of his parents into the car.

"Now Chanmin, listen to Eomma and Appa well."

Chanmin nodded and got ready to learn

"First, bend your knees slightly."

Chanmin bent them.

"Now, slide one of you feet forward."

Chanmin slid his right foot forward.

"Great! Now, try sliding the other foot."

Chanmin exhaled and moved his left foot, only to go out of balance and fall.

"I can never learn how to skate!"

Mark and Donghyuck looked at each other.

"Don't say that Channie. You will learn how to skate, trust us."

Mark picked Chanmin up and put him back on his feet.

"Bend your knees. Slide your right foot. Slide your left foot."

Now filled with more determination, Chanmin followed his Appa's instructions slowly and carefully.

"Now, do it by yourself, slowly and carefully."

Chanmin slowly slid his right foot, then his left foot, then his right foot, then his left foot.

"I-I'm doing it! Eomma! Appa! I'm doing it!"

He may be skating slowly but seeing their first born child skate made Mark and Donghyuck happy.

"Thank you for catching me when I fell from skating."

"Of course! If you fall on your butt as you ice skate, I'll help you up."

"Not before I laugh at you first."
