Hi everyone,

I'm new to houdini but I have 2 yr experience in Blender and currently using houdini apprentice.
I was trying to make an animation, for which i needed to do a simualtion in which a water droplet drops on a leaf, and leaf bends life it should in real life, the the droplet slides down from the leaf. This is the reference animation : https://www.pinterest.com/pin/1038009414134094060/ [www.pinterest.com]

I asked Gemini how can i do it in Houdini, but as always, it only confused me even more, I am using two vellum constraints node, one for the leaf and one for the drop(since i think soft bubble should look decent as a drop),I want only the drop to be affected by the gravity but no matter what i do it doesn't go as it should, I even tried pinning the leaf but that stops the leaf from being affected by the droplet fall impact, which is crucial.

Here is a screenshot of my node setup:
