this moring i started my car it seemed fine, i drove to the gas station
and took off the engine, after i got gas i went to start the car and it would not start it just clicked it seemed as if the battery was dead i got a jump start and it worked but now the car hesitates when i turn the key before starting i think its eventually gonna die on me again

could a bad serpentine belt or alternator be causing the car to die on me ? which one could it most likely be ?

Get your battery tested. My guess is that your battery is dying, probably on its last few breaths.
