Catch up

It's looking like Ana might be partially to blame and the room is getting tense.

In an honest atttempt to lighten the mood, you say "Geez, Ana--looks like maybe

taking those longer lunches is fnally catching up to you!"

Can I understand the underlined part like because you often had lunches too long,

now you end up being to blame. I couldn't find much of 'catch up to' on Google.

Thanks in advance!

There is not enough context to fully elaborate, but: looks like maybe taking those longer lunches is fnally catching up to you = it seems that your longer lunch breaks are beginning to adversely affect you / your behaviour.
