Brief Answer:
Its ok

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Yes, it is ok and the contraceptive efficacy of the pill is maintained if you have taken the pill as soon as you remembered on the next day.
Missing one pill in the second half of the cycle do not requires you to take the extra precaution.
I suggest you not to worry.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
