Two people, one belief, unclear order

A community health worker visits a household where two adult cousins, Petra and Ilse, live together and have limited contact with others. Both now firmly believe that a shared employer is deliberately underpaying them as part of a wider scheme. Neither can clearly say who first raised the concern, and the health worker has not yet been able to interview them separately or establish how long each has held the belief.
