Matron of Honor
Noelle and Karina's relationship goes back to Karina's birth circa 1990. Noelle didn't know that this new being would grow up to crawl into her bed when she was scared, steal her clothes, spy on her and her boyfriends, become one of her closest friends, and then eventually move to Indianapolis for her. Noelle has grown to tolerate (and love) this younger sister of hers ;)
