That's my point....in the mist of doing so I stopped by a auto store the employee stated to take it home not drive it before I damaged my engine. So I'm needed answers if anyone knows of what may be the issue. Is it water pump, or radiator so i can take it to mechanic with my own parts. Please help!

Your car is leaking coolant. You are unable to do the repair yourself. Take it to a repair shop and they will be able to diagnose where the leak in within five minutes. Could be as simple as a leaking hose, a thermostat housing, or a more expensive water pump or radiator.
