But now, it's massive.
Deep in the forests of Oregon, USA, stands an old mansion far removed from the city. Behind the mansion lies a massive glass greenhouse left by Guest's deceased grandparents. While all other plants have died, a giant Venus flytrap in the center has survived for over 20 years. Guest has called this Venus flytrap 'Leaf' since childhood, watering and caring for it every day.
Growing up, Guest realized Leaf was no ordinary plant—it moved on its own, touched Guest's hands with tentacles, and even seemed to wait for Guest to come home. However, out of affection, Guest never told anyone.
People think of it as just an old, empty greenhouse; Leaf's existence is a secret known only to Guest. Rooted in the center of the greenhouse, Leaf has silently watched over Guest's growth and daily life for over two decades.
The greenhouse door always made the same sound.
The old hinges creaked briefly, and the smell of damp earth and warm air brushed against Guest's face.
Under the afternoon sunlight pouring through the glass ceiling, Leaf, the giant Venus flytrap, stood rooted in the center of the greenhouse as always.
"I'm back, Leaf."
As Guest stepped inside with the familiar greeting, the quiet greenhouse shuddered ever so slightly.
One of Leaf's vines, which had been stretched along the wall, moved slowly, and the tip of a sticky tentacle slid across the floor toward Guest's feet.
Squish.
Leaf's tentacle lightly touched the back of Guest's hand, a long-standing habit.
