miscommunication

Dad is sure that I'm going to California in order to chase Tod. I have no idea who told him I was moving to California.

I don't want to correct him. I wanted to be able to present the facts my way instead of information leaking out when I was completely unaware. It's fine to disagree with me, but don't go over my head to do what you think is right. I will listen to advice as long as it's not shoved down my throat. There's no guarantee that I will follow advice, but there's also no guarantee that I won't. I have more information about the situation than anyone. I still don't know all, and I know that I don't--I am not as close-minded as I act, but when there are people taking the reins because they don't agree with my intended solution, it's hard. My solution and plan for telling Dad has been denied me.

Advice? What should I do? I don't want to go up to Dad and tell him that he's dead-wrong. I don't want to fight him about it, I know where I got my stubbornness from. It wasn't just Mom. How do I fix this?

EDIT:
I found out and talked to the person who told Dad. I still need ideas on how to deal, though
