# natbel_friend

!!**There will be 2 main paths for this:
!!**1. Friends only Natasha helping Sveta with homework, no longer doing it for her (option removed), watching TV together, going for walks, doing a job together (flyers in the park), & (later) meeting the cool kids & Jocks at the beach & possibly swim in the lake (skate in winter) plus sauna - Natasha needs a swimsuit.
!!**2. Love interest (dom/sub) Bi-involving guys.
!!**Path 1 will always be available even if on route 2.
