Although his presence in the Oscar Pistorius trial was limited, Henke Pistorius has expressed his support for his son in the sidelines. The heartbroken father only appeared in court during the deliberations for the final statements.

According to The Telegraph, he may not have been there physically, but the Pistorius patriarch monitored the proceedings in the advocate's chambers just 400 metres away to avoid media attention.

He also revealed that he and Oscar have yet to really sit down and have a "decent" talk since the Paralympian shot his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, on Valentines' Day last year.

"We've said in various conversations and SMSes [text messages] we must get together and have a long talk," Mr. Pistorius shared. "Since the tragedy he hasn't had a decent talk with me. He hasn't yet talked to me from his heart."

He added, "I know it's going to happen. It's going to happen soon and it will be good for both of us."

One more person who wants to talk to the Blade Runner is another father - Reeva Steenkamp's father, to be exact. Barry Steenkamp told Australia's SBS One that he and his family would only find closure if he can question the athlete personally.

"It won't be anything nice or anything like that, but I'd like to sit down and talk to him," he said. "And I'm sure that will come about."

Mr. Steenkamp and his wife, June, bear "no hate" for their daughter's killer. However, they can't deny that the judge's final verdict for the Oscar Pistorius trial shocked and disappointed them.

Mr. Steenkamp believes it was not the "right verdict" and that there was still something that needs to be uncovered.

"I feel that there's still a missing link somewhere," he said. "I think there's quite a bit more to the whole thing than has been produced so far."

The Oscar Pistorius trial will continue on October 13. Judge Thozokile Masipa will be giving her sentence for the athlete's culpable homicide verdict then.
