To be safe,yes: The pills you took Saturday and Sunday may offer some protection but to be safe I would repeat it. I also highly encourage you to talk to your health care provider about an IUD, nexplanon, Depo-Provera provera (medroxyprogesterone) or birth control pills so you won't have to worry about this in the future. Good luck!
