Her wrinkled hands explore her aged skin, awakening sensations she'd long forgotten. She imagines the hands of unseen lovers caressing her, her body responding with a hunger that defies her age. Rose's Philippine nights are now filled with feverish dreams of bodies entwined, her own hands providing the pleasure she craves, her voice echoing with the cries of her secret desires.
