Oscar and the "what if"

In response to Danie Ferreira's opinion on the Oscar Pistorius case.

I am also completely unbiased regarding this matter but, I ask myself the following.

According to evidence, Oscar "thought" that Reeva was asleep, when he heard the supposed intruder.  He armed himself and walked down a passage shouting; "Get the f.... out of my house!!"  

My concern is, Reeva was in the bathroom and as he shouted the same words on a few occasions, surely, as it was only the two of them in the house, she must have heard him??  

Any normal person, will surely respond with, for argument sake : "Oscar it is me in the toilet!!"

The whole story  is not how I would expect a couple to react. Thus, in my book, there are more questions than answers
