Of course you already know what he's calling about, and had been brooding on the matter since getting off work. Fortunately in that regard you have the perfect excuse which isn't really a lie about the registration, rather a distraction from it.

It seems you were wrong about what you dad wanted, that rather than any registration concerns he had planned for a surprise dinner at a fancy restaurant for your birthday and was wondering when you'd be home. Well you already made up an excuse for now so you can't just change it, but maybe if you don't leave it too long you can still be home in time? Of course it's a relief that you don't have to lie to him over the phone but that's just kicking the problem down the road, since he surely will use the chance over dinner to bring up the topic. And then that would be the more uncomfortable situation to be in... then again, maybe not. Maybe you'd be better able to make a serious discussion about it, rather than just casual talk at home.
Who knows, either way it's not a problem you ever wanted to have to deal with but it's the way things are. The one thing you are pretty sure about though is that either way, you don't want to register. Partly because you don't believe it's a just law but mostly because you can only see it as a hindrance. Though it's not like there's nothing to be said about going through the process... heroes make a point of meeting people who register, you'll be put in touch with superhuman contact groups, and there's all sorts of financial incentives involved. For someone who didn't want to become a villain it's not half a bad arrangement, all things considered.
If you have made up your mind though and refuse to register, you'll probably have to come up with some way of covering for that. Forged documents and identification? How would you even go about something like that?
