I get that you keep running. It makes kind of a crazy sense.

I am sorry you were raped.

It was a bad thing. I believe you.

I also believe the HIV is real.

I know, too, for a fact that juvenile detention is dangerous.

There are no comprehensive standards. No health care. No testing. Little education. And younger boys are often victims.

Your decision to stop taking the HIV meds is a kind of running away from a problem you do not want to face. If you stop taking the meds, the problem vanishes.

You were running away before the rape, and you are still running, boy.

Authority is one step behind you.

If you don’t start confronting stuff, you are going to die. I do wonder if you have any kind of idea what that means.

There is no coming back to start over again.
