Look after my laptop?

what do you say when you want to ask someone in the cafe to watch for your computer when you are going to washroom? (i.e can I say "can you look after my laptop for a minute?)
Thanks

I don't often "chime in" a second time on a thread, but this came to my mind as I was going to sleep last night. I use look after in the sense of tend, take care of.
