You can't predict or want what height you'll grow upto. It depends on multiple things, genetics, hormones and physical activity being most common.
Next Steps
Try to remain physically active. Exercise regularly and have good nutrition.

Be satisfied  with what you have  and be grateful to almighty. No One grows after the age of 18 yrs. Be ware, don't fall in the trap of quacks  who claim to increase the height.
