When did you buy the battery?

Ok. Hope you are much better now? It's possible for a battery to die that fast if the battery is old and/or if there's something consuming reasonable amount of power when the car is idle.
That said, it's better you attempt recharging the dead battery first before considering a replacement.

Check charging system and ensure Battery is properly been charged by your alternator. Alternator first, battery comes in later.
