"again" , doesn't fit here. So I am happy to see I'm not the only one to think so. Following is a parallel example

http://br.geocities.com/oninhodo_escritor/texto/anoiva/anoiva.htm

"Não sou supersticioso, mas uma vez nessa estrada um gato preto cruzou a minha frente e era sexta feria treze e por via das dúvidas parei no pedágio e só sai pela manhã."

agree  Enza Longo: In view of the additional context, I too believe this is what is meant as I don't see what "choice" it could be referring to
16 mins
  -> Tks Enza. After seeing the preceding sentence that Tobias posted, I continue to think the author meant "also in this context"
