They made our bed but we wouldn\’t lie in it

It was inevitable. Shown to our room to find only one, relatively small, double bed in it. Mentally Dave and I had prepared for this eventuality when travelling in Brazil, but still when faced with the prospect of spooning together I clenched a little (well a lot really). So we asked if the they had any twin bedded rooms. There was a jumble of excited Potugese and voila…it turned out the double bed was easily separated into two singles. Some giggling amongst the house maids. I said through the one that understood a little English \”he\’s my friend but not that good a friend\”. Even louder giggling from the housmaids. I fear they may have made an incorrect assumption!
