Unfortunately, those leaves will not grow back 😣 So sorry! But if you cut the rest of it off, that should help the cutting put more energy into producing new leaves!

Please don’t cut that leaf!

You have no soil so there is no food source. That leaf is the only thing photosynthesizing and without it, your plant will grow very very slow. New leaves will form but they aren’t meant to stay in water.
