Mark likes to take Samuel out for a walk when I'm cooking dinner. On one of his walks, he met a young girl from our neighborhood. She quickly gave him the run down of where everyone lives and what goes on around our bairro.
One day, she came by our house when Mark and Samuel were out for their walk. I went out to tell her Mark would be back soon and that I was learning Portuguese, so I probably couldn't say much. That's when my prova began! It was a fun little test. She started quizzing me about the objects around my home, what I was doing, where I lived, where I was from...all sorts of questions. I was feeling really good about my answers. She was understanding what I was saying, and I was too!
However, when Mark got home, I learned I had missed a very important question. Apparently, I said I didn't know who Mark's wife was! Mark spent a few minutes explaining that I am his wife and that no other women live with him. Haha...oops! I still don't know how I managed to not understand what she was asking. But, it's a good story to laugh about now.
