PROLOGUE

Rahul has finished his MBA in tourism, he has just left Delhi and now heading to Bangalore for attending the book launch of his writer-friend "Madhav". Madhav was no less than a brother to him. He calls Madhav from the Railway Station to get some information about the event..

RAHUL : Hey, how're you?

MADHAV : Great, left for station?

RAHUL : I've reached here, just waiting for the train. Bro! Can't you book me a flight ticket, do you know It will take almost two days reaching Bangalore, It's going to be boring.

MADHAV : Sorry brother, flight for the next time for sure. But it was destined I think. (Rahul laughed)

MADHAV : Stop laughing I'm Serious. Look, check your bag you will find my book there, I dropped it there last time.

RAHUL : Don't worry I'll bring that too.

MADHAV : it's not for me, it's for you, you read the book, you will not get bored for sure.

RAHUL : No way! I'll better play games or watch movies.. Reading novels is not my cup of tea for sure. (Laughed)

.MADHAV : I am not asking you, it's an order..

RAHUL : What? Are you serious?

MADHAV : Listen dear, the purpose of writing this book will not be served unless "YOU" read it. It will give you all the answers you have been asking me for the last few years, but I stood silent. You asked me :

1) "Why my father was an alcoholic, why he treats me like animals?"

2) "Why my mother committed suicide at such an old age?"

3) "Why your family loves me so much?" and much more

(after a big pause)

RAHUL : I... I don't know what are you talking about, how can this book answer my questions?

MADHAV : listen, you believe me right, then please read the book before you arrive here. Promise me?

RAHUL : Promise.

MADHAV : Great, see you soon!

RAHUL : hmm.. (Hangs up the call)

It took Rahul almost 10 minutes to gather himself after what he heard on the call, the siren took his attention as the train has arrived, he took his luggage and entered into the Coach and started looking for his seat no. 25

He checked his bag and found the book titled #25_years_back The cover and title both seems interesting (Rahul thought)

"Let's see what you bring out for me in the next 25 hours"

Rahul Said and started reading.
