歸我管/我來照顧
這是往前看的那條線:某件事、某個人現在歸你管,由你來照看。
in charge of · adjective · B2
Having the job or duty to be in charge of someone or something, or to look after them.
負責的
You can picture responsible as: a line that connects a person to a thing, so that the thing 'answers back' to that person. Whatever happens to the thing, the person is the one it points to — the one who must answer for it. From that single line grow two directions: looking forward (this is yours to take care of) and looking backward (this happened because of you, so explain it).
