Because the story is not over. The prologue makes this clear at the very beginning. "Whose misadventured piteous overthrows do with their deaths bury their parents' strife", and "their parents' rage which but their children's end naught could remove" both tell us that the story ends when the parents reconcile.

How did Juliet die and why?

Well, Juliet, in the play Romeo and Juliet died in a tragic death. You see, Romeo and Juliet's parents and family were in such a great feud that Romeo and Juliet were forbidden from seeing each other. Juliet then pretended to kill herself, and so Romeo saw her and killed HIM self. Juliet woke up from her fake death and saw dead Romeo. So she promptly stabbed herself with his dagger and her cold, dead corpse fell onto his and they died tragically together. So sad... I found that this tragic play was very similar to that of Queen Cleopatra of Egypt and Mark Antony's death.
