The Importance of HIV Testing: âThe threat is not in having the disease â itâs in not knowing you have the disease.â
"In 2016, I was a 22-year-old with no health insurance and the only place that would take me without extremely high fees for medical care was Planned Parenthood. I was not there for HIV testing, but they offered it to me anyway, for free. I never expected when they called me back a week later that anything was wrong, but my results came back positive for HIV.Â
Naturally I was shocked. I was diagnosed in a different state than the state I was living in at the time, so it took a few weeks before I could get into treatment. I didnât tell anyone about my diagnosis because I was worried about what they might think of me. At the same time, I was living in constant fear of what my life with HIV would look like. When I finally got back home to Florida and met with my doctor for the first time to go over my numbers he said âYour viral load isnât great but itâs not bad. Itâs good that you found out when you did because we can fix this.â And almost immediately, the weight of all my fears had lifted.Â
I have a normal life. I am a graduate student. I have a beautiful man who loves me. I can still have children. I can travel. I can do any and everything I had planned for myself before I was diagnosed with HIV. People often think that HIV is life-threatening. But the threat is not in having the disease â itâs in not knowing you have the disease. Thanks to Planned Parenthood, I know, and that is how Planned Parenthood saved my life."Â Â

Getting tested is the only way to know for sure if you have HIV, and itâs one of the best ways to keep yourself and your partners healthy. HIV tests are usually quick and painless â most of the time, all you have to do is rub your cheek with a cotton swab.Â
The best part about HIV testing? Getting tested and knowing your status can really put your mind at ease, no matter the results. If you do find out you have HIV, youâll be able to get the information you need to start treatment. Thereâs no cure for HIV, but there are medicines you can take to help you stay healthy and lower (or even stop) your chance of passing HIV to others.Â
Having HIV does not make you âdirtyâ or a bad person, and it doesnât mean your life is over. People living with HIV can be in relationships, have sex, and live full, healthy, happy lives with the right treatment and the support of friends and family.Â
Lots of places offer free or low-cost HIV testing, like your local Planned Parenthood health center.Â

Summary: Plastique is a cupid who falls in love with Ariel during a mission, now she has two days to make a decision and make the girl fall in love with her too.
Plastique sighed once more, she was already lying in the same cloud for three hours just watching the girl below.
Plastique was a cupid, which meant that they gave her two people and a period of two weeks to make the couple happen. Plastique found it easy to do this, she loved to see humans discover new sensations, feelings and love, but something had changed on her last mission.
It was a quick mission, only two people who were meant to be together since they were born, but had trouble staying together, Plastique solved this in three days. Only something that caught her attention since she started looking for them, there was a girl, friend of one of the people, Plastique stuck her eyes on her the moment she saw her.
Her name was Ariel Versace, Plastique spent two days investigating to see if she didnât do or was already part of any mission, if she wasnât already with her fate with someone, it was one of the happiest moments of her life to know that girl didnât have that kind of connection with anyone. She didnât even know why she was so happy about it, it was not like she had any chance, she was a cupid and the girl a human, even though she looked like a divine bubblegum princess.
Plastique was going crazy, only that could explain why she was spending her free seven days watching the girl.
âStill here watching?â Soju approached, Soju was a flora fairy, she took care mainly of the Korean part of the globe, but she still managed to make some escapes to get to talk to Plastique.
âPathetic, isnât it?â.
Ariel left the house, walked quickly to a car standing in front of her, Plastique accompanied her through the clouds, Soju followed her too.
âA little cute, but you look a little⌠How do humans say?⌠A stalkerâ.
âI am an angel, I donât chase anyone, I am just watching through the cloudsâ.
Ariel had gotten out of the car, meeting a group of people in front of a nightclub before they all got in together.
âYou have so much to thank me forâ Soju finally managed to get the girlâs attention from the scene beneath them âI looked among the elders for a response to your daydream, I managed to find something that seems to make sense and is not too dangerousâ.
Soju pulled something up her sleeve wrapped in pretty green leaves, Plastique watched the package in her hands gently before opening and seeing what was inside. It was a blood-red block, had a strong smell of blackberries, milk and strawberries, Plastique was tempted to bite it before she even knew what it was.
âThe elders said that there were stories of angels falling in love with humans, they said that some gave up being an angel to become just human just like the loved ones, others were able to remain angels even though they stayed with loved ones, others live unhappy because they choose to stay as an angel and not with loved ones, but they told me that when an angel falls in love it is for lifeâ.
âDoes that mean sheâs the only one Iâm going to love that way?â.
âYes, and I didnât want you to be unhappy to choose to be without her, so I arranged it,â Soju pointed to the block in her hand âthis will give you two days as a human, after that you will become an angel again, two days is enough to make you thinks about a right decision to make, and she can get to know you, just eat the whole blockâ.
Plastique didnât wait long to eat the block with big bites, it was sweet and made her want more every bite until it was over, she felt a strange sensation soon after. From the fingers to the shoulders she could feel a tingling, then her back burned so hard that her eyes closed with pain, she felt herself falling through the pain until her feet touched something. When she opened her eyes she wasnât in the clouds, she was on top of a building, her wings were not showing and her golden clothes were changed into a pink dress.
She went to the edge of the building, trying to get used to walking without the big wings on her back, you can see the nightclub Ariel had entered a few moments ago. She smiled and started down the stairs.
âI never thought Iâd see someone like me againâ The woman at the door of the nightclub spoke, Plastique could see the womanâs invisible wings, she did understand exactly what she meant by âlooking for something?â.
âLooking for someoneâ.
âItâs not a mission, you wouldnât do it all if it were one, just goâ.
Plastique smiled at her before entering the nightclub. It was noisy and had too many lights, she had already fulfilled some missions in such environments, but to be there as human was totally different, she still didnât know if she liked that place, but surely it was something different enough to make her lost. She walked aimlessly for some time inside, there were too many people bumping into her all the way, she was trying to find the girl somehow, any colored sign she had there.
âHey, are you okay? You seem lostââ Plastique felt a hand on her waist, she recognized the voice, but still looked surprised when she turned and found Ariel in front of her, a smile on her face.
âI was looking for someoneâ Plastique died a little while inside, watching the girl approach to hear her.
âOh, tell me who it is, maybe I can help youâ.
âNo need, I just found itâ.
âIs that your pick up line?â Plastique had to hold herself in order not to laugh, had seen many humans trying this method to approach someone, but never thought she would do it herself.
âMaybe, did it work?â.
âA little, maybe it will work later, will you have a drink?â.
Plastique just nodded, let the girl pull her to the bar. Her hand was soft, not like the clouds, but Plastique could get used to that feeling, also to the sensation of having her heart racing at the touch.
âIâm Ariel, are you?â.
Ariel was still close to her when they arrived at the bar, Plastique didnât complain, she liked the girl close to her, she could still feel her hands together. She wasnât going anywhere.
âPlastiqueâ.
âIs that your name or something that you use for people not looking for you later?â Ariel smiled at her, letting go of her hand so she could deliver a glass to her.
âMy real name, I promise,â She looked at the glass in her hand, much of what was happening she had only seen in third person, she had seen people drinking until they lost control, they had given a hard work for her because of this âthis isâŚâ.
âOnly Margarita, where are you from? You look and act differentlyâ.
Plastique took a long swallow of the drink, regretting it soon after when she felt a burning sensation in her throat. Ariel laughed at the expression she had made just after leaving the glass again at the bar, watching the girl try to get used to it.
âIâm from a little far, I got here todayâ.
âAre you here to stay?â.
âMaybe, it depends on more things than my decision, but I hope I can stayâ.
âI hope so tooâ.
Plastique looked at her again, it was nice to be able to be this close this time, the girl looked even more beautiful now. Even with all that going on around her, all of Arielâs attention was on her, a meaningful look in her direction, like she was a mystery and the most important thing in that place.
âHey, weâve been looking for youâ.
Plastique recognized the second voice that day, she could see Aquaria approaching, Plastiqueâs friend who was her mission, then Brianna appeared right behind. Plastique really had to get used to it all.
âBut since you already have company, weâll leave,â Brianna said with her hand on the girlâs waist to pull them away âweâll go to another party, if you want to appear, the Mercedesâ oneâ.
Plastique could see Aquaria blinking at Ariel, then the girl laughing, watching the girls walk away. It was a good feeling to see the couple that she helped stand so well in front of her, even though she had to control herself so she wouldnât look even stranger.
âWhat do you say? Do you want to stay here or go see this other party? Not that you have to⌠â.
âIâd rather stay if you donât mind.â
Plastique had to control herself not to respond to what she really wanted, that she wanted to stay, but really wanted to stay where Ariel was, no matter the place.
Michelle looked down at the girls. Ariel was pulling Plastique to the middle of the dance floor, Brianna and Aquaria stepped out of the nightclub holding hands with smiles on their faces as they watched the girls dance.
âYou didnât tell her the truth, did you?â Michelle asked as she approached the scene.
âI didnât lie, I just hid their names being written togetherâ.
âGreat, itâs better this way, itâs a rare case, a cupid having the mission to make herself without even realizing it, Plastique would go crazy if she saw that her next mission is her and Ariel, she can do it for herself without even realizing itâ.
