Down on bended knees

Anderson had finally gotten the life he wanted,a nice house,a great family and a job most people could only dream of,now his past just seemed like a fleeting memory which he could only justify as a means to an end.
He was fast asleep that night when he was awoken by some strange noises,which he dismissed at first but after a while the sounds kept becoming louder and sounded more like footsteps.
He got up and headed towards the door but before he could lay a finger on the knob,someone kicked down the door,his wife woke up immediately and on seeing the three armed men in their bedroom she fainted.
Now Anderson was being held at gun point as they searched the room for cash.Anderson could remember being on the other end of the gun when he was younger.
He never really believed in karma nor did he ever keep and considerable amount of money in the house.
When they couldn't find any money lying around one of the criminals held a gun to his head .Anderson went down on bended knees and begged for his life but but nonetheless he was left in a puddle of his own blood as the thieves made away with a few valuables.
