Two Wishes in OneLoading...

"And, in exchange for your wish," The genie said, with a sly smile, "I want one of your organs."
I knew something like this would have happened, no one can just get what they want without consequences. But, I could probably bargain for a smaller drawback.
"Sure, but no taking any essential organs. I don't want to die in the first ten seconds of getting my wish." I knew this wasn't enough though.
The genie replied, "Okay, I'll take one non-essential organ from you, dea-"
"Also, the organ has to be an internal organ," I cut him off, knowing the genie could still find a loophole, "Since skin, is an organ, right? I don't want to be living without my skin."
The genie's evil, grinning face slowly transitioned from confused to angry. He didn't say anything for about 5 minutes, trying to come up with a loophole in what I had said. I knew that he would be stuck in that lamp forever if he hadn't made a deal. So, to make the most out of the moment, I handed him a piece of paper that covered all the possible tricks that the genie might pull.
"Yeah, just sign at the bottom there." I pointed to a line at the bottom of the page.
The genie looked at me with a face that told me I was really pushing his limit. I didn't care though, I really wanted my wish.
"So if I sign this, I still get an organ?" The genie asked, worriedly.
"Of course, that was the original deal, right?" I responded.
He formed a pen from thin air and wrote his name in a language I probably couldn't decipher in years. Then, in an angry puff of smoke, he disappeared to somewhere in the world. I just hope he stays there, I would hate to see his reaction when he finds out that he not only removed my appendix, but that I also have appendicitis. Or should I say had. Now, because of my original wish, I also have 10 million dollars in my bank account. I'm rich, and longer have appendicitis, that's two wishes for the price of one!
