There is no need to go into why - simply tell your professor you may have to miss one class, and you wanted to know if he/she offered the same class at a different time and if you could attend it. If pressed, just say you have some personal business that you may need to attend to. You are not lying, and you are making it obvious that you are trying to keep the personal business from interfering with your studies.
