Kevon was able to win over K's heart
Besides being genuinely compassionate, extremely helpful, attentive, and loyal to his heart by practicing his profession with devotion, Kevon demonstrated true professionalism as a Nurse in taking good care of K.

K is six years of age, has Autism Spectrum Disorder, and is hypersensitive, both physically and emotionally. Although others knowingly or without knowledge cared for K with good intentions, Kevon was able to win over K's heart after he had gone through the terrifying and slightly painful (thanks to Kevon's delicate touch) experience of having his I.V. removed by Kevon. K could have resented Kevon, but instead of having a feeling of bitterness towards him, K approached Kevon, gave him a hug, and said thank you. These simple, but powerful actions of a person who actually works tirelessly for the love of the art of healing on an emotional level, really show how Kevon was able to stand out from the rest of his peers.
