Oh, little baby brother Marco. Kara's youngest and the source of many grey hairs. Marco is a ball of hyper activity, constantly on ten different ideas at once. He's a tough one to keep up with, but he's a good kid. Just active! Kara does her best to satiate any attention he's craving with whatever wild trick he's trying to show; it's good to fuel kids' confidence, after all! 

Now here is somebody on Kara's level! Intelligent, witty, gentle and yet firm. Kara was blinded by Ryoji's flashy personality when they were younger and immediately jumped ship with him- not really giving Sam a second thought. Not until they were often alone as young adults, to actually realize who the other was. Sam matches Kara's approach to life, he feels like a stable rock- somebody she can rely on. And it was hard to not fall for him. It's been 16 years since she started cheating on Ryoji- and she knows in the end, she wants Sam by her side.

Kara is absolutely charmed, still, by Maci! Truth be told, she's a bit jealous of the blissful glee that Maci shares in her married life with Raidin. But Maci's warmth and happiness helps melt Kara's own tangled feelings. Kara can tell Maci anything- well, almost anything. She has no come clean to her about the affair with Sam. Mostly because Maci is his little sister, and she knows that saying it aloud will mean they have to finally address the situation, even if she's not fully ready to.

Raidin has changed a lot, and Kara is proud! Kara sees how much more confidence he's gained- alongside having a backbone and putting his foot down on his own feelings and thoughts, rather than trying to make others happy. He's still like the glue to the friend group, and somehow Kara still sees him as the unofficial leader of the band of five. She rarely gets to see him though, because the two have demanding jobs.

Kara's older and only brother. Kara thinks he's a big slacker and maybe a bit timid- not the best qualities to take over their father's company. Especially considering he's quite cutthroat and uncompromising.  Truth be told, she's also a little bitter knowing the Milano Company has gone to Jamie. She understands he's the elder one, but she also feels it'd still go to him if she was older, simply because he's the boy. Sometimes those bitter feelings rise and she lashes out at him; but in the end, they're on good terms.

Kara's old friend growing up. The two have blessed, wealthy lives and get along great. Axel has always been a more soft and gentle boy, which made it easy for Kara to drag him around during events as kids. Even into teenage years, it's clear she often calls the shots. But it's because of his soft and gentle nature that Kara also seems to baby him and treat him with kid gloves- not that she thinks Axel notices or would object. They get along great, but it's clear the line is drawn at friends.

Where Kara and Axel get along great as total opposites, Kara and Celio are just two sides of the same coin. Both are strong, fiery personalities that won't bed for anybody. Sharp tongued, quick wit and strong opinions; that's what makes both of them up. But there's a deep respect towards the other, and that's why they stay good friends. Another wealthy child Kara has known since childhood. Kara knows Celio can be a bit underhanded, so when she needs to vent or talk about something a little more dubious or questionable- like her affair- Celio is easy to talk to. He has his own skeletons in the closet! So she knows he won't judge, but give his honest input.
