Sophella or Marphie is the romantic/friendship pairing of Sophie Foster and Marella Redek. When Sophie first moved to the Lost Cities, the girls were good friends. They had a fight and stopped talking for a while, but began to mend their friendship later in the series, and some believe this could lead to something more.
