second time I unlocked the doors but didn't open the door to get in. Went in and came out after sometime and saw the doors locked automatically, I have to unlock it again.
I have no idea what could have caused the car to lock in the first scenario, but the automatic re-locking in the second scenario is normal. Every BMW (and VW) we've had will automatically lock the doors if you unlock them and then do not enter the vehicle (via doors or trunk/hatch) after a set time (about 3 minutes on our 7 series).
