Well, for a long time, me, Pep, and Spin have been involved in the fight
|
against AIDS, and we always say the best cure is not to get it
|
and not to pread it. You should be responsible if you're gonna have sex.
|
So, we decided to give a spot on our album to a group
|
of young people who'e also involved in the fight,
|
and they're called WEATOC from Boston, Massachusetts.
|
They're just young people schoolin' other young people.
|
|
[Cathy:] Oh, God, I can't believe this. I mean, I thought this happened o
|
other people but not me. I mean, I'm only 16 years old. I had a hole
|
life ahead of me, and now I'm gonna die! I mean, what am I gonna do?
|
I...Oh, God, I'm so confused, and where's Mario? I called him over an
|
hour ago. All we had to do was just use protection. I mean, the condoms were right there.
|
|
[Knock on door]
|
[Cathy:] Come in.
|
[Mario:] Yo, what's up, man? Hold it, hold it - where the tv at?
|
[Cathy:] Mario, forget about the tv.
|
[Mario:] What are you talking about? I got 50 dollars on this game.
|
[Cathy:] Mario, this is more important than the game.
|
[Mario:] What? What? Alright, whoa, who's home?
|
[Cathy:] There's nobody home right now.
|
[Mario:] Oh, then so that's why you called me over here then...
|
[Cathy:] Mario, that's how we got into this in the first place.
|
[Mario:] What are you talking about? What, what are you talking about?
|
[Cathy:] I went to the clinic today.
|
[Mario:] Oh, what you got? A little cold? I know how to fix that.
|
[Cathy:] Mario, I don't have a cold.
|
[Mario:] So..oh...oh, please, please, don't tell me you're pregnant. Please don't tell me you're pregnant.
|
[Cathy:] Right now that would be easier to tell you than what I have to tell you.
|
[Mario:] So then what are you talking about? You're talking in circles, Cathy.
|
[Cathy:] Mario, I got tested, and my test...my test results came up positive.
|
[Mario:] Tests for what? Postive for what? What are you talkin' about?
|
[Cathy:] I have HIV...
|
[Mario:] You...
|
[Cathy:]...And I really don't know what we're gonna do because...
|
[Mario:] Hold up, wait...wait, wait... You got AIDS?
|
[Cathy:] Yes.
|
[Mario:] Oh...
|
[Cathy:] I have the virus, and I don't know what we're gonna do.
|
[Mario:] Hold up, what "we're" gonna do?
|
[Cathy:] I mean, we should have used protection.
|
[Mario:] What "we're" gonna do? What are you talking about? No, no, no...this can't... No, this is not happening to me...
|
[Cathy:] What are you talking about?
|
[Mario:] No, this... I mean, YOU might have HIV, I guess, but not me. No, I'm sorry, I'm straight.
|
[Cathy:] Mario, what are you talking about? You know you're the only one I've been with.
|
[Mario:] That's not what I've heard.
|
[Cathy:] You know we didn't use protection!
|
[Mario:] Oh, my goodness, that's not what I heard. My boys talk... They told me they seen you with all types of dudes, Cathy. Come on, now.
|
[Cathy:] Your boys? You're gonna start listening to your boys at a time like this?
|
[Mario:] Well, I'm... Well, trust me, now was a perfect time to start.
|
[Cathy:] Mario, I thought you loved me! What are you... I can't believe this is coming from you! I thought...
|
[Mario:] Hey, whoa...
|
[Cathy:] I thought I meant more to you than this!
|
[Mario:] Well I did love you, but now you be sleeping around. You caught AIDS and all that...
|
[Cathy:] Sleeping around?!
|
[Mario:] What do you want me to do?
|
[Cathy:] I can't believe you, Mario! I hate you! Just get home, my God!
