## Friends

### Emilia

Emilia is one of the protagonists of Candy Series and one of Mia's best friends. Her relationship with Mia started when they were formed into a group together with Joni and formed the pop group Candy JEM. At first, Emilia was proud, a show off and a person who looked down at poor people like Sofia, her former friend. She also treated Mia and Joni badly at first, but then when Sofia said that she did not want to be friends with people who mingle with the poor and Joni stood up for her while saying she would not let Sofia bully her friend, Emilia was sort of touched since Joni called Emilia her friend. After that, she became more nicer and warmer to Mia and Joni and they became best friends.

### Joni

Joni is one of Candy Series' protagonists along Mia and Emilia, she is also Mia's best friend. She made her debut in Reaching for the Stars: Friendship. She was friends with Mia ever since they were in kindergarten. She treats Mia nicely and was shown to be rather protective towards her, as shown when she would never let any boys who like her to try to flirt with her or being too close with her, especially Charles.

### Alexandra

Alex and Mia shares a close friendship with each other. Alex often eats with Mia and Candy JEM during break time and is accepted into the trio during the class' group activities. Hence, the two of them bonded and acknowledged the opposite as close friends. Mia, along with Joni and Emilia were also the very few people whom did not get disgusted with Alex's poor hygiene and appearance during the events of book 4 and they even volunteered to help Alex to clean and redecorate her house.

### Corey

Not much interaction was seen between Mia and Corey but the two considers the opposite as close friends and are at good terms with each other. In Season of Blossoms: Growing Up, when Mia first experienced puberty, Corey helped her by trying on her clothes as the latter suggested to help her see whether her body size is the same as Corey's. This showed the close friendship between the two.

In My Little Secret: Privacy, Corey had helped Mia and the rest by giving helpful advice to help them deal with their family problems, thus Mia showed gratitude to Corey after his advice had helped her. Mia is also the few people whom always supports Corey during times of crisis and during tournaments Corey has.

Mia and Joni also often tease Emilia's relationship with Corey in attempt to embarrass the two, this act, however, went unbeknownst to Corey.

### Anthony

Mia alongside Candy JEM had a rocky start with Anthony. As she found it unfair that Anthony gave Alex demerits which might cause her to get expelled even though Mia though that Alex did not break the rules. The two of them, soon however, got on friendlier terms with each other. Mia and Candy JEM are also willing to invite Anthony to join them for lunch whenever he tries to give lunch to Alex.

Along with Emilia and Joni, the trio often tease and bring up Anthony's intimate relationship with Alex.

## Enemies/Neutral

### Sofia

Initially, Sofia disliked and envied Mia despite her being nice and friendly to her, often tried to bully or do things better than her to attract attention from people. Mia, however, does not seem to get bothered much by Sofia's actions of trying to overcome/surpass her at things that Mia is good at or has/about to accomplish, only on rare occasions like teasing and accusing her of "dating" Charles or complaining that Mia's photo on a page of a fashion magazine was of better quality than hers.

But as the series developed, Sofia started to lose interest in competing with Mia and soon be on friendlier terms with her. Mia started to acknowledge and got to know Sofia better, the two's bond soon got better whenever the opposite tries to help up.

### Sera

Because of Mia's kind nature and well-behaved manner towards her siblings, Rose decided to let Mia to be her only daughter's tutor. At first, Candy JEM thought Sera was sweet and would get along well with her, but they later found out that Sera was a spoiled brat who behaved badly and always talked back at them. Sera even stole Mia's butterfly hair tie and attempted to blame on the latter for making her sick despite Sera just pretending to be sick to create an argument between Charles and Mia. However, as Sera revealed her faults to everyone and apologized at the end, she got scolded by Charles for pretending to be sick. After that, Sera became a better person as she felt bad for treating the girls badly.

### Nora

Not much interaction were seen between Mia and Nora, but since Nora is Sera's best friend and her attitude is similar to Sera, the two considered each other as enemies as Nora did not appear after Sera stole Mia's butterfly hair tie.

### Mr. Chan

Not much interaction was shown between Mia and Mr. Chan, but since Candy JEM found that Mr. Chan was the creeper who kidnapped children, the two view each other as enemies as Mr. Chan was trying to hurt her friends.

### Jane

Mia and Emilia used to admire Jane and befriended her due to her getting the 10th place in class. Their friendship with Jane, however, ended when they found out about Jane's true colors about her attempt to replace Joni in Candy JEM by attempting to tear down Joni's homework. They reprimand her with Mia lashing out her words at Jane that no matter how much better she is, she could never replace Joni.

Ever since then, Mia and Emilia started to lose trust on befriending Jane and instead feeling disdainful or avoiding her whenever Jane is trying to act nice or greeting them, even when Jane was imitating Joni's appearance in order to make Joni look bad because of Jane's hatred towards their best friend, Joni.

### Lily
