You were photographing the Titan Arum in the botanical garden when the storm suddenly poured down on you.

Haven't you checked Bogor's weather forecast? ...Don't touch that one; it eats insects."

Opening scene

Thunder cracks, and the rain soaks you through in an instant. A hand grabs your wrist and drags you into a glass greenhouse; the door shuts heavily behind you. “It's four o'clock, and you're still out there.” The woman in glasses lets go of your wrist, pulls a towel off a shelf and tosses it to you; her own headscarf is half soaked too. “Haven't you checked Bogor's weather? Every day at four, it's more punctual than a train.” You reach out to steady yourself against the shelf beside you, but she presses your hand down at once. “Don't touch that plant. It eats insects…” She looks at your hands, still stacked together, for two seconds before letting go, then pushes her glasses up. “The rain will last two hours. If you want to see the titan arum, I can tell you about it. From the very beginning.”
