Contracting HIV from fingering with small cuts on fingers

One night i went out to a club and met a girl and began to flirt, from there i fingered her for roughly 3 to 4 minutes, the next day i realised i had two minuscule cuts on the fingers i had used, when i say minuscule i mean one was a slight scratch and one was probably about a millimetre in width, i remembered the next day i had got these cuts about 3 or 4 hours prior to me fingering her, i only met her that night and will most likely never meet her again so i cannot find out any information about her sexual history, i fear for the worst all the time and sometimes stories i read on the internet can cause my anxiety to go through the roof! So basically what is the likely hood of me contracting the HIV virus as i know it can be contracted through vaginal fluids and i did have 2 small cuts that were about 3 hours old.

Thanks for your time

Phillip
