Brief Answer:
No need to worry.
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX .
Welcome to HCM.
You had got pricked on your finger while throwing cups but didn't notice blood or even if it is present there then also the risk of HIV is very unlikely as it is very difficult for HIV virus to survive outside the human body and it will die within few minutes only.
Allay the stress or tension related to HIV and don't think too much as the risk is practically not there. If still you have any query feel free to ask me anytime and I am always here to help you out. Forget about the episode and move ahead in life happily.
Thank You

The cup was unattended since long that means the blood on the bandage or cup itself was dried and it is very difficult for HIV virus to survive there so no need to worry. Be relaxed and move ahead in life. For any query get back to me here any time.
