Here you go:

route.js

function root(request, response) {
    if(request.url == "/") {
        response.writeHead(200, {'Content-type': "text/plain"});
        response.end("Home\n");
    }
}

function contact(request, response) {
    if(request.url == "/contact") {
        response.writeHead(200, {'Content-type': "text/plain"});
        response.end("Contact\n");
    }
}

function about(request, response) {
  if(request.url === "/about") {
    response.writeHead(200, {'Content-type': 'text/plain'});
    response.end('About\n');
  }
}

module.exports.root = root;
module.exports.contact = contact;
module.exports.about = about;

index.js

var http = require("http");
var routes = require("./routes.js");

http.createServer(function(request, response){
    routes.root(request, response);
    routes.contact(request, response);
    routes.about(request, response);
}).listen(3000);
