She came to the spot where the hands were buried everyday because she wanted to recall her memories with the man. One day, a plant grew right next to that spot. This plant grew very fast, and soon blossomed to be a tall plant with wide green leaves and sweet yellow fruits growing in clusters. She noticed that the yellow fruits looked like fingers.
