"I'll teach you."

"You'll teach me?"
"Yes, why not?" His eyes had a galaxy of cosmic dreams, like a cascading waterfall of ambrosial amaranthine, that lured my soul in. He was the snake in Adam's garden and I was his inebriated Eve.
"I... I don't mind." I was pulled in his Canis constellation, him being the sirius that outshined my moon.
He curved those plump lips, as red as a cherry and as beautiful as a new rose. He was like Adonis: young, beautiful and could charm anyone. I wasn't his Aphrodite, but he is my Adonis.
"Okay, so let's start with the easiest of the three, should we?" He asked, ushering me to sit on the desk chair while he sat on the bed.
I opened my book and nodded to him. He turned to the fifth chapter of the book, Euclid's Geometry.
"Before we start the chapter, let's know about Euclid. So Euclid is a Greek mathematician who is referred to as the Founder of Geometry and Reasoning.
Although mathematics has been prevailing through every civilization, the Greeks, Egyptians, Roman and Indians laid an emphasis on the reasoning behind the methods used in our practical science.
The Greeks laid a certain emphasis on the construction of stated functioning of methods, which they discovered using deductive reasoning.
Greek mathematician Thales is credited for giving the first known proof. Pythagoras was the first to discover the geometric properties of traingles, precisely right triangle.
But all of these provided no definitions, which was thus concluded by Euclid."
His voice rang in my ears like a drop of honey, that melted on a pancake and soothed the desires of the tongue.
"So, you know who's Euclid now." Said Sunoo.
"Hmm..." I hummed with a rather mesmerized tone.
"Now what's Axioms and Postulates?"
"What?" I asked.
"In geometry, we need not prove everything with a definition because they are the universally accepted truths. These truths were divided in two, axioms and postulates. Axioms are indefinable truths which isn't limited to geometry. It can be used in any subject that involves mathematics.
But Postulates are limited to geometry. These definitions can only be used in geometry, like the congruence theorem."
"Mhm..."
"Let's do it practically." He pulled out three chocolate bars and ordered, "Read the first axiom."
"Things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one another."
