The Genie was completely flummoxed. Never in all the millennia had anyone ever refused to wish, and now... she didn't know what to do. "What do you mean you don't want anything!? You have to want something!" she whined. "Master, I know you're paranoid that I'll get the wish wrong somehow, but I won't! I promise I'll give you exactly what you want, no strings attached! Honest!" she sounded desperate.
"Sorry, I don't buy it." You say. "This isn't about whether I believe you or not. I'm not taking any chances with something like this." You firmly state.
"Please Master!" The Genie got down on her knees and begged. "I want to grant your wish! I need to grant your wish! Please! Wish for something, anything!" You can see the tears rolling down her face as she tries to convince you.
You stare at the Genie as she blubbers and weeps on the floor. You were just going through your Grandfather's old stuff after he died and left you everything, including the house, and now you've got a girl in despair crying because you won't give her what she wants. To say you never would've expected this was an understatement.
"No. Why do you care if I make a wish or not anyway?" You asked. The Genie is begging like she's trying to keep you from killing her child you'd taken hostage or something. "Why don't you just find someone else?"
"I can't!" The Genie screeches at you. "You freed me, I can only grant your wishes Master! I need to grant your wishes! I've always granted wishes! That's all I've ever done..." She sobs for a moment and looks you in the eye. "Master, I can't do anything else."
You weren't going to have her grant a wish from you, but you admit you can't just leave her like this. What can you do?
