acquaintance's

Distant friend's belonging

The possessive form of acquaintance—a person you know but not intimately.

An acquaintance falls between stranger and friend: someone you've met, can identify, perhaps exchange pleasantries with, but haven't developed a close relationship with.

I borrowed my acquaintance's umbrella.

Through an acquaintance's recommendation, I got the interview.
