Phrase: it just can't be...

Hi

Could you please tell me if the underlined parts read naturally to your native ears?

It just couldn’t be that she did not see us. We were in the same shop for almost an hour.

It just can’t be that I forget everything overnight and behave perfectly normal tomorrow.

Thanks,

Tom
