This "emission" you saw twice. Did it evaporate or go away immediately? Have you had it scanned for trouble codes? How is the engine running?

It was a white color, whent away first time a sow it in about 1 min or so, the second time was at night while driving so I can say how fast whent away but from the time I saw and the time I stop at my houses about 3min in this timer whent away. Never Scanned for trouble codes, not familiar with this. The engine for what I hear and feel its runing smooth.

White smoke that stops quickly is usually just condensation (moisture) being burned off. Nothing to worry about, unless it gets worse or more frequent.
