Oscar Pistorius sobs as he reads Valentine's card Reeva gave him on day he shot her

Oscar Pistorius sobbed on the witness stand today while reading out a Valentine's Day card Reeva gave him for Valentine day. She gave him the card and a wrapped picture frame with photographs they took on February 13 last year, hours before he shot her..
As he sat in the witness box, his lawyer asked him to read the words
Choking back tears, he said:
'Roses are red, violets are blue. I think today is a good day to tell you that... I love you'.
The envelope said 'Ozzie' with 'some hearts and a squiggle', while the card was signed 'Reeves' with a smiley face and three kisses.Initially, he said he hadn't been able to open the card since her death. He finally opened it on her birthday in August last year..
The message was presented to the court in the hope it will counter prosecution claims that they were not in a loving relationship at the time of the shooting.

The prosecution is however giving him a hard time,pushing him over the edge ..He says Oscar is being fake,acting out the tears and can't claim he went to attack intruders without making sure his girlfriend was safe..
He also says the direction of the gun shots on the door shows Oscar aimed to kill her and since he didn't kill her with the first shot on her leg, there was no way she didn't scream and alert him she was in the toilet..
A writer Janni Allan claims a reliable source said Oscar took acting classes prior to commencement of his trial...
