Like you say, there's no such thing as being in between squares.
The trigger for the opportunity attack is "opponent enters an adjacent square". An opportunity action interrupts the triggering action - it occurs before the triggering action resolves. So the attack happens before "opponent enters an adjacent square" resolves; he has not yet finished entering the adjacent square, and since there is no such thing as being in between squares, until he finishes entering the adjacent square, he is two squares away.
At the time the OA occurs, the opponent is two squares away.
