About chickenpox vaccination

I have chickenpox infected person in my home at present . I never had chickenpox in the past. But for safety measures I had taken chickenpox vaccination before 6 months. Now do I need to take just one more doze ? OR do I need to take one doze and after 4 weeks another doze?
