It was 5 in the morning, Raghava was awakened by his alarm. He woke up prepared breakfast for his mom and his younger brother Ronny. Got freshened up and got ready for college, it was his last year, before he gets a real job, in this real world. He works part-time at a near pizza plaza. He lost his father when he was 3, his mother took care of him until she lost both her legs when he was 18. He was his family's last hope. It was the last month of college and soon career day was going to be held. A career day is when renowned companies pick up candidates from the campus to work for them.


It was Friday, Raghava was returning from college and going for work when his little brother asks for some money for stationery and his school trip. "Raghava said, "ok give some time, I'll arrange". On his way, Raghava was thinking how can he arrange money for stationery, picnic and feed his family. He arrived at the plaza switched to his uniform and forgot about everything and greeted everyone with a smile. After he was done working his shift, he asked his boss for an advance. Thankfully the boss was in a good mood, so he gave him some money. Raghava was happy and returning home. While he was crossing the road, a drunk driver hit Raghava and he was severely injured, luckily some good people helped him instead of making videos.


It was a near Death Experience for Raghava. He was drenched in blood from top to bottom with severe aches. Doctors had given up hopes and his family was traumatised. Seeing her kid in pain, his mother was in tears asking blessings for her son, though there were heep of thoughts in back of her mind, and couldn't imagine life without him. Only thing she was pleading the doctors is to save her son.


On the other side of the room Raghava was fighting for his life, then came a shout of the nurse asking the doctors to help him , as he was sinking.

Raghava was all most dead and was having altogether a different experience. He felt calm with no pains , his body floating in air , with pleasant and cool breeze caressing him. Never in his life had he felt that calm and relaxed and he was loving the feeling of nothingness, though he could hear bleak voices of people trying some equipments and beeps. Suddenly in the mid of the beautiful feeling , a conscious thought of his mother and small brother, being left alone, started wandering over him and in a hush of a movement he started gasping his breath with the thought of he living only for them and they cannot be left helpless in this word.


As he took few breaths and slowly opened his eyes , he could see a sigh of relief on faces of Doctors and nurses , who had surrounded him and he was just clueless. Then came a voice calling his name and asking him how was he. Than as he recovered he was told, he was nearly dead and it was god who saved him. As Raghava listened to the story he could recollect those "7 minutes in Heaven" when the wildest fear of losing his loved one bought him back to earth , to shoulder his responsibilities of a loving Son and a caring brother.
