Timing of 2nd dose is not critical, especially if you’ve already had infection with coronavirus. No problem waiting a fees days/weeks beyond the recommended time but would not let it slip any further.

Waiting a few days for the second dose will not matter. However, you should take the second dose so that you develop robust immune response. Wish you good health!
