"only two squares are formed"
Nothing else? No extraneous features?


You know I thought about that too.  Does the "only" only bear on the number of squares or on what may be formed?  I think either is a pretty reasonable reading myself.  I paraphrased the original problem so I take responsibility for any ambiguity I let in.
