A: It’s a bit more natural to say “We are friendly, but she is just a colleague” meaning you both are nice to each other, but nothing outside of work.

Or just
“She is just a colleague”

or even
“We aren’t close, she is just a colleague.”

If you don’t know the word “acquaintance” that could also be used here. “She is just an acquaintance” meaning someone you are around often but don’t know well. Examples are someone from school, work, or more who you talk to at that location, but only there.

*you say “an” instead of “a” because the next word starts with a vowel (vowels are A, E, I, O, U sometimes Y)
Also, sometimes when words have silent first letters like “H” in the word “honor”
For example “it would be an honor”
