Why is my Alocasia Jacklyn drooping? It wasn’t like this earlier. I need help!

P.S. all the other leaves are fine.

How does the soil feel? My Jacklyn droops when she’s thirsty

It could also be a new leaf? It looks kind of small and the stem looks green in the picture, so it may just not have fully opened yet?

I watered it and look at the leaf!

Much better! If it’s a newer leaf, it may be more sensitive/delicate than the more mature ones and might wilt earlier 🤷🏻‍♀️
